1. What whole body counters do you use? Canberra AccuscanII and Canberra Fastscan
2. What is your calibration frequency for whole body counters? Annual 3. What is your frequency for performing a source check on the whole body counters? Daily for the Accuscan (no holidays or weekends) and within 4 hours prior to use. Weekly on the Fastscan and as needed. 4. Do you perform cross-checks (counting an unknown source to be compared to an accredited lab) on the whole body counters? If so, at what frequency? No, we do not.
