An Atomlab component housing the ionization chamber
detector and the electrometer.
Displayed value changes without the removal or insertion of
a source in the Chamber Well.
The Atomlab component incorporating the electronics, con-
trol keys and displays which perform and show activity
measurements.
The verification of the activity of a radiopharmaceutical to
be administered to a patient, corresponding to the radiation
to be delivered to the body.
Measures the current in the ionization chamber, which is
proportional to the activity of a source within the chamber.
The section of the Atomlab Front Panel consisting of a 4-
digit display, Increment/Decrement keys (
⇑
and
⇓
) and an
associated key, which allows the operator to enter any num-
ber possible on the display into the Atomlab program.
The test of a dose calibrator to determine the variation in
the displayed activity values due to the geometric configura-
tion of the source's container (vial, syringe, etc.) and its
location within the ionization chamber detector.
A device which responds to the activity of a source by form-
ing ion pairs which can be collected as a measure of the
radioactivity.
A calibrated solution containing a compound labeled with a
radionuclide such as Tc-99m (radiopharmaceuticals). From
such kits doses are prepared to administer to patients to
facilitate nuclear imaging.
A partially transparent radiation shield behind which doses
can be prepared.
The test of a dose calibrator to determine the variation in
the displayed activity values from the true ones over the
measurement range of the instrument.
