摘要：

Brain concentration of mercury as low as 100 ppm were determined by detecting the 368 kev prompt gamma -radiation emitted during the **1**9**9Hg(n, gamma )**2**0**0Hg reaction at doses of 102 mrem. Spatial consideration is given to the dose measurements. An approach to achieve minimum shielding weight and greatest reduction in background is described in this paper. A metallic artificial mole is used to control variation in head position.
