Comprehensive Fuel Cycle Solutions Bioassay and Environmental Radiochemistry Gamma Spectroscopy Continued Electrically-Cooled Cryostats High Purity Germanium Detectors must be maintained at cryogenic temperatures. Traditionally, this has been done by placing the detector assembly in a Dewar filled with liquid nitrogen (LN2 ). The LN2 must be replaced due to boil-off every week to two weeks, which costs money and wastes valuable counting time while the Dewar is being refilled. The Cryo-CycleTM and Cryo-PulseTM 5 Cryostats described below eliminate the requirement to continually refill the Dewar...

In Vivo Counting Systems and Measurements 3 CANBERRA is the leading global supplier of in vivo systems, including both whole body counters and lung counters. These systems measure radionuclide uptake into the human body. Because the individual does not need to submit a urine or fecal sample for analysis by radiochemistry, in vivo counters simplify the internal dosimetry assessment process for most radionuclides. Whether for “routine personnel monitoring” or ‘‘post accident conditions” these systems provide important health and safety records required for personnel involved in nuclear fuel processing,...
