Virtual calibration of whole-body counters to consider the size dependency of counting efficiency using Monte Carlo simulations
The counting efficiencies obtained using anthropomorphic physical phantoms are generally used in whole-body counting measurements to determine the level of internal contamination in the body. Geometrical discrepancies between phantoms and measured individuals affect the counting efficiency, and thus...
