Dose calibrator linearity test: 99mTc versus 18F radioisotopes

Dose calibrator linearity test: 99mTc versus 18F radioisotopes

Objective: The present study was aimed at evaluating the viability of replacing 18F with 99mTc in dose calibrator linearity testing. Materials and Methods: The test was performed with sources of 99mTc (62 GBq) and 18F (12 GBq) whose activities were measured up to values lower than 1 MBq. Ratios and...
