Chapter 7: Calibrations Using Well Type Chambers 7.1. General guidance

7.2. Calibration of SSDL reference sources

7.3. Calibration of hospital’s well type chamber The hospital’s well chamber system is calibrated at the SSDL using the SSDL reference source. The response curve, spacer and insert, ion recombination, atmospheric communication, and air kerma calibration are checked.

7.4. Calibration of hospital’s non-standard 137 Cs sources

7.5. Guidance for some special cases

7.6. Calibration of source trains

7.7. Traceability of 137 Cs source calibrations

etc., etc.
