In order to use the REMS Dashboard to its full capabilities, a supported web browser is mandatory. The browsers compatible with the REMS Dashboard are the most recent versions of Firefox, Safari, Chrome, and Microsoft Edge. NOTE: Using an unsupported browser (such as Internet Explorer) might limit the functionality of the application.
The Dashboard uses an external link indicator (
) to visually indicate that the link takes the user to an external website.
Links to Government Websites
The Dashboard links to publicly available websites that are government-owned or government sponsored, unless directed not to by the agency that owns the site. Acceptable federal government-owned or government-sponsored website domains include .gov, .mil and .fed.us.
The Dashboard also links to quasi-government agencies and websites created by public sector/private sector partnerships, state and local government sites, and some government-sponsored websites that end in .com, .org, or .net.
Links to Non-Government Websites
The Dashboard also links to websites that are not government-owned or government-sponsored if these websites provide government information and/or services in a way that is not available on an official government website. The Dashboard provides these non-government websites as a public service only.
The Radiation Exposure Monitoring System (REMS) Dashboard neither endorses nor guarantees in any way the external organizations, services, advice, or products included in these website links. Furthermore, the Dashboard neither controls nor guarantees the accuracy, relevance, timeliness or completeness of the information contained in non-government website links.

After successfully navigating to the REMS Dashboard, you will be directed to the home dashboard. The home dashboard is separated into two primary areas: the menu bar (left) and the content area (right). This easy-to-use navigation allows for intuitive and quick operation and is further examined below.
- The side menu bar is a stationary element in the REMS Dashboard and, as such, is always visible from any screen within the Dashboard. The menu bar holds the primary navigation.
- The majority of user content is within the content area of the Dashboard. The content areas hold modules of content.
- Some of the content graphics have roll-over areas to see additional information. When you have completed your review of the graphic, click on the ‘X’ button located in the upper right-hand corner of the graphic to return to the last page.
Navigation Aids
Navigation Aids allows users to keep track of their current location within pages or documents and are located on the left side of the Dashboard. Any navigation aid in the REMS Dashboard that is the color blue signifies it is an active link. Clicking another link will direct the user to a new page.
Left Navigation Bar
On the left side of the window is a dark blue menu bar. Clicking on a menu button will direct the user to the specified page. The active module is shown by a lighter blue highlight.
Module Tabs Navigation
The module tabs are located above the content area. The tabs are used to navigate throughout the modules without navigating to another page. Clicking the module tab will change the content area so that it pertains to the selected tab. The tab currently being viewed is identifiable by its highlighted color.
