As of the end of 2024, there were 889 professionals and technicians, with an average of 18.8 ± 4.2 per institution. There was a statistically significant difference in the number of professionals and technicians between public and private institutions ( t=-3.48, P<0.05), while there was a statistically significant difference in the number of professionals and technicians between Grade A and Grade B and unclassified institutions ( t=-4.01, P<0.05). There were 1 886 items of equipment, and there was a statistically significant difference ( t=6.58, 10.13, 6.74, P<0.05) in the total number of items of equipment, on-site testing equipment, and laboratory testing equipment between Grade A and Grade B and unclassified institutions. Totally 48 institutions issued 21 026 reports on radiological health tests, with an average of 457.1 ± 6.4 reports per institution and 4 038 reports on radiological health evaluation, with an average of 87.8 ± 5.1 reports per institution. A total of 25 institutions carried out personal dose monitoring, accounting for 78.1%, and completed the personal dose monitoring of 40 058 radiation workers for 5 428 employers. The workload of technical services has been increasing year by year. In the past 6 years, a total of 20 professional and technical training sessions have been sponsored, with approximately 3 500 people trained. A total of 21 rounds of various quality assessments or evaluations were conducted, and the overall pass rate was good and has been increasing year by year.
