Abstract

The public domain code GENIA, based on multi-printing method for producing surface sources with appropriate radioactivity, is described. The conventional technique, running on standard inkjet printer with radio-marked ink filling, is improved by repeating elementary printing commands in the same band. Well outlined sources with adjustable radioactivity can be obtained without refilling. The intrinsic limitation of printable radioactivity, depending on the value available at nozzles at printing time, was overcome. In addition the method permits the accurate calibration of the amount of activity released onto the paper.

摘要

描述了一种基于多打印方法的公共领域代码 GENIA，用于生成具有适当放射性的表面源。该方法改进了传统技术，即在标准喷墨打印机上用放射性标记的墨水填充，通过在同一波段中重复基本的打印命令来运行。无需重新填充即可获得轮廓清晰且放射性可调的源。克服了由于在打印时喷嘴处可用放射性值的限制而导致的可打印放射性的内在限制。此外，该方法还允许对释放到纸张上的放射性活度进行精确校准。
