Description
The subject of research was investigation of the accuracy in determining the 99mTc activity injected in a container simulating a single organ. Data acquisition as made with different width and range of energy windows described in the article. The activities of 99mTc were determined with an error ranging from 7% to 27%. The most probable source of errors are scattered photons
