Title: REDUCTION OF DOSES IN DIAGNOSTIC USES OF RADIOISOTOPES

Journal Article · · Indian J. Med. Research
OSTI ID:4116079

> A moderately low-level counting technique with anticoincidence gas- flow counter was developed for use in metabolic and diagnostic tracer studies with radioisotopes. Several important experiments and results were reported which have been carried out with reduced doses of tracer isotopes. A reduction of the tracer dose of ahout 1/30th of the present conventional doses was achieved which helps to minimize the chances of radiation hazards. (auth)
