N2  - The Queensland Radium Institute has had a computerised database for 15 years butthere was little uniformity in the data collected and there was considerable scope forimprovement. In 1991 the institute decided to upgrade and standardise its datacollection system. The improvements will allow easier access to the data for researchand audit purposes. The process was effective and the implementation straightforwardbecause of effective planning and training. This paper outlines the process used in thereview and implementation of the new database system and describes the data setsin some detail.
