Atomlab 950 Wipe Test Program
- Complies with current regulatory standards
- Automatic subtraction of background activity
- Stores (and reports) individual wipe data on multiple wipe locations in any defined "area" - Can be customized for package/shipment wipes
Designed for use with an optional well counter, this program was designed to comply with current government regulations for counting and reporting results of wipes taken in contamination surveys. The program automatically calculates net contamination levels after subtracting measured background activity, and reports results in user-specified units of dpm, µCi, or kBq. Lower limit of detection (LLD) is automatically determined during the background count. Clicking on the "LLD Estimate" button gives the technologist a quick estimate of LLD to determine whether counting times are long enough. Specific wipe test areas may be named, added to the system database, and edited in much the same way as patient names and IDs. They may also be designated as "restricted", "unrestricted", or "sealed source". The user enters the isotopes of interest for any specific survey area, and the system counts and reports results accordingly. A detailed spectrum analysis may be performed (on demand) for any specific wipe. Each designated
"area" may include up to ten separate wipe locations (or items) for testing and documenting in that area's report (i.e. Area Name - "Camera Room"; Location - "counter top", "table", "cabinet door", etc.). A "Wipe Preferences" screen allows the user to specify detector, the detector's geometric efficiency, default count times, and the activity units to be used in reports.

Preset Thyroid Uptake protocols:
1. Automatic Count Time with Automatic Isotope Decay
Atomlab Software calculates count time to satisfy a level of accuracy established by the technologist. High count rate offers the advantage of short count time when counting the capsule. Because the system calculates decayed activity of the dose, recounting a standard is unnecessary.2. Automatic Count Time with Recounting a Standard
The system calculates the appropriate counting time based on the count rates and desired accuracy. A standard is maintained to recount for the decayed activity.3. Manual Count Time with Automatic Isotope Decay
The technologist sets the count time for four separate counts used to calculate uptake Ð generally 60 seconds each. The system monitors elapsed time and calculates decayed value for administered dose.4. Manual Count Time with Recounting a Standard
The technologist sets count time for four separate counts, then recounts standard and lab background, and counts the thyroid, and patient background Ð generally 60 seconds each.
