Abstract:
A system and method for cross-calibrating a radionuclide at two separate locations (A and B) includes the use of a portable ion chamber configured to fit within a dose calibrator, which ion chamber receives a syringe containing a known volume of a sample of a radionuclide. The portable ion chamber and dose calibrator with the syringe is transported to another location, where a second syringe, identical to the first containing a second sample of the same volume of the same radionuclide is measured in a second dose calibrator.

Claim (Index 9):
A system for cross-calibrating a radionuclide at two separate locations (A and B) comprising:\n (a) a portable ion chamber defining a cavity to receive a first syringe used to draw up a known amount of activity, A 0A , at location A at calibration time t 0A  into a pre-defined volume; (c) a first dose calibrator defining a cavity to receive the portable ion chamber and a second dose calibrator defining a cavity to receive the portable ion chamber; (d) a processor configured to:\n (i) in the first dose calibrator at location A, measure the chamber's response for a first sample volume in the first syringe, by integrating charge for a period of time t iA  and determining a calibration factor, \n (ii) measure the ion chamber's response in the second dose calibrator for a second period of time, after the ion chamber and the first syringe has been transferred to location B, and a second sample having the same volume of the same radionuclide into a cleaned and emptied first syringe or second identical syringe, placing the cleaned or second syringe into the ion chamber, placing the ion chamber into a second dose calibrator, \n (iii) determine the activity of the second sample by adjusting with the location A calibration factor; and \n (iv) cross-calibrate the second dose calibrator with the first dose calibrator using the measured activity of the second sample.
