Tube type sources

Application
Tube type sources are used in the quality control of well-type NaI detectors used in biomedical research and nuclear medicine.
For the quality control of multi-well detectors, matched sets of tube sources and multi-finger sources are available. The advantages of using a multi-finger source are:
• Saves time - 1 source for 12 measurements simultaneously
• No half life correction needed (I-129 sources)
• Sealed sources - safer to handle than liquid standards

Construction
The radioactive material is homgeneously incorporated in 1ml of resin at the base of a plastic tube, 12mm in diameter and 75mm long. The rest of the tube is filled with inactive resin.
