Continued construction of the realistic phantom for calibration of transuranic isotope lung counters is discussed. Current work includes final shaping of the torso cast, development of a technique for making foamed plastic lungs loaded with transuranic isotopes, casting of tissue-equivalent (T.E.) organs, and acquisition of rib cages for the second and third phantoms.
