Abstract

Radiation dose measurements of radiopharmaceuticals and measurements of dose calibrators at different voltages and fluctuations were evaluated. Low and high doses of technetium, iodine and fluorine pharmaceuticals were measured in different voltages. The results showed that only low doses could make small and insignificant differences.

Keywords

Voltage errors, radiopharmaceuticals measurement, voltage fluctuations effects on dose calibrators
