“…In the study of Koç, the measurement for linearity tests were performed with two different radioisotope calibrators, Capintec 15R and Biodex ATOM LAB 500 in a Nuclear Medicine Center. These measurements, linearity tests of devices have been performed by using the method of decaying source, increasing source, and sample -volume effect [10].…”

Dose calibrators are used to measure the amount of radioactive to be given to the patient. It is necessary to determine the correct dose and measure the amount of radioactive material with the least possible error. To minimize these potential errors, quality control (QC) tests should be carried out periodically according to the United States Nuclear Regulatory Authority (NRC). ATOM LAB 400 (serial number:11070208 ) and 500 (serial number: 15091215) dose calibrators that are actively used in our clinic were used. The aim of this study is to compare with another recently calibrated dose calibrator to verify the dose calibrator that needs to be updated is working properly. QC tests were performed on both dose calibrators. Test results of the currently certified dose calibrator and ATOM LAB 400 dose calibrator whose certificate will be updated were found to be compatible with each other. The tests performed on both dose calibrators remained with the error limits. The calibration certificate of the ATOM LAB 400 calibrator has been updated in accordance with NRC protocol.

Objectives: Getting correct and reliable results out of the dose calibrators is only provided by periodical quality control tests. To provide the optimization of diagnosis and treatment applications and it is essential to perform test procedures correctly since radiation safety of patient is highly dependent upon the reliability of dose calibrator. Patients and methods: In our study, the quality control tests using Biodex Atom Lab 500 dose calibrator in the Nuclear Medicine Department of Istanbul Medical Faculty were given. Test results was evaluated by using the Nuclear Regulatory Authority (NRC) eligibility criteria. Results: According to the NRC, results of the quality control tests must remain in ±%5 margin of error. In this study, performed quality control tests of dose calibrator according to NRC standards yielded acceptable results. Conclusion: Dose calibrators are a must for the measurement of radioactive material to be given to the patient in nuclear medicine departments. Therefore, quality control of this devices is extremely important in terms of giving minimum radiation to the patient.
