SourceCheck  
The SourceCheck ionization chamber is the ideal device for measuring the source strength of radioactive seeds, which are used in radiation therapy for permanent implantation into cancer tissue and of sources used in intravascular brachytherapy (IVB). It is specially designed to feature a full 4-Pi-geometry for high precision source strength measurements.
 
Please note : It is particularly useful for the measurement of BEBIG IsoCord cut strands prior to implantation.
The SourceCheck chamber makes it possible to measure single seeds or seed trains of up to 130 mm length. The outer chamber dimensions are 220 mm x 60 mm x 14 mm. A wide guard ring reduces the influence of scattered radiation from the housing to improve the measuring accuracy. Since the sensitive volume is vented, air density corrections are required. For measurements, the SourceCheck chamber can be connected to an electrometer type UNIDOS, UNIDOS E, MULTIDOS or TANDEM.
Features: 
  • Flat ionization chamber for measuring the source strength of radioactive seed strands and intravascular brachytherapy sources
  • Features vented sensitive volume of 55 cm³
  • Accommodates the source inside the chamber volume
  • Measures the source strength with 4-Pi-geometry
  • Connects to a an electrometer with 400 V chamber bias voltage supply
