These high quality Co-57 Flood Sources provide a uniform field of radiation for the evaluation of the extrinsic uniformity of your gamma camera. The Flood Sources are available in a wide variety of circular and rectangular dimensions and activities to meet the standards established by your gamma camera manufacturer.

Standard Flood Sources

  • Outer rim of flood has finger grip edge  for easy handling
  • Top opening lead-lined case allows for easy access

Camera Specific™ Flood Sources

  • Smaller activity field allows for a higher concentration of counts
  • Provides up to 19% more activity in FOV
  • Longer useable life
  • Provides “bonus” activity with no added cost

Camera-Specific™ Flood Sources consider the field size of your specific gamma camera. These sources maximize the amount of radioactivity in your field-of-view by providing a higher concentration of activity than that of a standard flood source. The consequential higher count rate results in shorter accumulation time and the longer useable life of your flood. See the Flood Source Selection Guide to help you determine the flood source that best suits your needs.

Each Co-57 Flood Source includes a lead-lined storage case with wheels. The case can be easily moved by using the conveniently placed handle. All 6 sides of the container are lined with lead.
