Process and apparatus for the distribution and measurement of the activity of radioactive solutions

Creators

Description

The invention concerns a handy process and apparatus for (a) automatically determining the activity of a radioactive technetium solution and (b) for diluting a given volume of the radioactive solution in a given volume of a saline solution so that the resulting radioactive technetium solution has a preset volume and dose concentration. The invention also relates to an apparatus and a process for the automatic distribution of technetium providing uniformity between the doses administered to patients and causing the exposure of the users to radiation to be minimal

Abstract (French)

L'invention concerne un procede et un appareil commodes d'une part de mesure automatique de l'activite d'une solution de technetium radioactif et d'autre part de dilution d'un volume calcule de la solution radioactive par un volume calcule de solution saline afin que la solution resultante de technetium radioactif ait un volume et une concentration de dose predetermines. L'invention concerne aussi un appareil et un procede de distribution automatique de technetium assurant l'uniformite entre les doses administrees aux patients et rendant minimale l'exposition aux radiations des utilisateurs
