Description
The use of response operator matrix built by scaling confirmatory factor analysis (SCFA) for whole body gamma spectra work up is presented. This provides a noticeable decrease of limits of detection. Two γ-spectra are analysed for 137Cs and 40K using transfer function between spectral photon fluence rates and the activity in the body. (author). 3 refs., 3 figs., 2 tabs
