BACKGROUND

The Nuclear Medicine Division at Naval Medical Center San Diego is looking to procure two (2) CRC®-55tR Dose Calibrators to replace existing ones that are currently at end of life. The dose calibrator is used in nuclear medicine to determine the exact activity of radioactive dose administered to the patients. It is considered an ionization chamber constructed to measure the number of ions within a medium. It consists of a gas filled enclosure between two conducting electrodes (the anode and cathode). When gas between the electrodes is ionized by any means, such as by gamma rays or other radioactive emission, the ions and dissociated electrons move to the electrodes of the opposite polarity, thus creating an ionization current which may be measured.
