[Intl_DxMedPhys] AAPM Position Statement on Gonadal Shielding

[Rebecca Milman]

I'm guessing this was an oversight rather than a deliberate "stopping of
the position statements". (Although in reality I have no more information
than anyone else here.)

At least one group in AAPM (the Communications Coordination Committee) is
looking into this now, so thanks for posting it on the listserv.
