Resumo: The learning acquired by radiology professionals, and society in general, can suffer a great impact with the emergence of new technologies, which can also affect actions during a nuclear or radiological accident. The search for more agile solutions leads to the development of skills and technical training that find new technologies a strong ally in an emergency. In this context, the objective of this article was, from the analysis of the situations faced by rescuers in the first records of the accident in Goiânia in 1987, through a historical review, to highlight aspects related to reaction time, location of events and reactions of the population, in order to simulate what the response would be like today, with the use of new mobile technologies. The aim is thus to accurately confront and discuss the relevance of new technologies in the face of possible events, always taking into account the complexities of new scenarios, also bearing in mind the fact that these technologies are within reach of the population.
