At this point, you may abort the measurement by pressing the F1 [EXIT] key.
If you are to continue with the measurement, first position the staff member in front of the
Probe at the distance prescribed in Bioassay protocol. Press the F4 [START] key.
Note: In order for the Bioassay measurements to give accurate results, the distance used
for measuring the CF for I123, I125 and I131 must be the same as the one used in
the actual Bioassay protocol.
While the measurement is being taken, the live spectrum will be displayed. The system will
count for the time specified in the Bioassay protocol.
When the acquisition is complete, press the F4 [DONE] key. The Bioassay Report Screen
(

Note: The Conversion Factor is only valid for the same distance at which the reference
source was measured.
