A commercial detector calibration package has been assessed for its use to calibrate the Human Monitoring Laboratory's Portable Whole Body Counter that is used for emergency response. The advantage of such a calibration software is that calibrations can be derived very quickly once the model has been designed. The commercial package's predictions were compared to experimental point source data and to predictions from Monte Carlo simulations. It was found that the software adequately predicted the counting efficiencies of a point source geometry to values derived from Monte Carlo simulations and experimental work. Both the standing and seated counting geometries agreed sufficiently well that the commercial package could be used in the field.
已评估了一款商业探测器校准软件，以将其用于校准人类监测实验室的便携式全身计数器，该计数器用于应急响应。这种校准软件的优势在于，一旦设计出模型，就可以非常快速地进行校准。商业软件的预测结果与实验点源数据和蒙特卡罗模拟的预测结果进行了比较。结果发现，该软件能够充分预测点源几何形状的计数效率，与蒙特卡罗模拟和实验工作得出的值相符。无论是站立还是坐姿的计数几何形状，都非常吻合，因此商业软件可用于现场。
