At least one branch of the U.S. government is looking at the possibility of spending*hundreds of thousands of dollars on a new type of radiation detection equipment.*A DHS official told Mashable that it*is considering a handheld device called the*RIIDEye*X, and depending on the model, each one would cost anywhere from $11,244 to $31,922.
