An industrial camera that contains radioactive material went missing in Houston last week, according to state health authorities.
The 53-pound (24-kilogram) camera contains radioactive material sealed inside a capsule and has radiation markings, the Department of State Health Services said Saturday in a statement. Levels of radiation outside the camera itself aren’t dangerous and the risk of exposure is very low, the department said.
