摘要
A method for the in vivo determination of stable iodine content of tissues is presented, which is based on the measurement of the intensity ratio of both coherently and Compton scattered photons in a narrow beam geometry. A 100 mCi 241Am source was used as a radiation source and a Ge(Li)-semiconductor crystal as a detector. The method allows the determination of iodine concentrations below 1 mg/cm3 with a reproducibility of a few percent. The result is practically independent of the tissue layers overlying the measuring site. © 1979.
