dc.description.abstract | In response to the increasing application of 68Ge/68Ga and 68Ga in nuclear medicine, an international comparison of activity measurement of 68Ge in equilibrium with 68Ga was organised. ANSTO standardised the comparison solution by the 4π(LS)β+-γ coincidence extrapolation and TDCR efficiency calculation methods, with excellent agreement between the two results. The primary standard was transferred to the ANSTO Secondary Standard Ionisation Chamber. Internationally traceable Australian Certified Reference Materials (ACRMs) of 68Ge/68Ga can now be prepared in various measurement geometries applied in nuclear medicine. © 2017 Crown Copyright, Published by Elsevier Ltd.
