1. INTRODUCTION

The Atomlab 950 PC is a complete thyroid uptake and analysis system specifically designed for nuclear

medicine. Capable of performing a full range of studies this system provides fast, accurate results for

Uptake Studies, Bioassay, Wipe Testing, Schilling Tests programmed for the Mallinckrodt, Bracco, or

Nycomed Dicopac® Schilling kits and Hematology testing.

The heart of the Atomlab 950 is a microprocessor-controlled 1024 channel Multi-Channel Analyzer,

coupled to a 2" x 2" NaI(Tl) detector with a personal computer interface. The system offers simple,

straight-forward operation using 23 pre-programmed isotopes, 50 user-defined radionuclides, and menu-

driven prompts to guide the user step by step through each procedure. The pre-programmed

radionuclides include I-123, I-125, I-131, Co-57, Cr-51, Tc-99m and Cs-137. The user-defined radionuclides

also allow for isotope identification while the printer provides hard copy printouts for patient and

department record keeping.

The Atomlab 950 has a memory allowing storage of 5,000 patients with multiple uptakes on each.

Additional features include an automatic self-diagnostic program, automatic calibration mode, choice of

automatic or manual counting time for uptake studies, and automatic isotope decay correction of uptake

measurements. These features help make this the most simple and accurate thyroid uptake system

available today.
