    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Covers the routine testing of radionuclide calibrators used in nuclear medicine.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This technical report covers the routine testing of radionuclide calibrators used in nuclear medicine. Such devices utilise ionization chambers of the well type (directly coupled to an appropriate electronic circuitry (IEC 61145)) and a direct readout in units of ACTIVITY. Requirements and specific methods to determine performance parameters are described in IEC 61303 and IEC 61145. These methods are primarily designed for acceptance testing.
