| Zusammenfassung | Detector systems for the measurement of radioactivity various fields applications need to be calibrated in terms of efficiency by means of radioactive sources of a given radionuclide with known activity. It is the task of National Metrology Institutes (NMIs) and other calibration laboratories to provide corresponding activity standards which are required in nuclear medicine, environmental radioactvity industry and several other research areas. The article describes important methods for primary and secondary activity standardization as well as ways to establish the traceability to primary standards and an international comparability of activity standards. |
