ED3 Extremity Dosimeter
Please request more information if you are interested in this product.
Description
Monitoring the extremities is extremely important when handling radiopharmaceuticals, in cardiology, oncology and glove box work as whole body dose may underestimate the extremity dose, especially when there are high dose gradients.
The ED3 Active Extremity Dosimeter provides monitoring of Hp(0.07) for high energy betas and photons (gammas and X-rays) on the extremities.
Probes come pre-calibrated and are interchangeable on the ED3 electronics unit.
Applications
- Interventional Radiology
- Radiation Therapy

Description |
ED3 | Active Extremity Dosimeter for monitoring, collecting, and displaying data from 1 or 2 detectors (must be the same type). Supplied with 1 x ED3D1 detector, PC software ED3 Data Manager. An ED3D4 may be substituted for the ED3D1 detector. |
ED3D1 | Detector designed to measure Hp(0.07) for photons from 60 KeV to 1.25 MeV. |
ED3D4 |
Detector designed to measure Hp(0.07) for betas and photons below 60 KeV. *Lower energies are possible, but response variability may increase. |
ED3 Calibration | Calibration of the ED3 with probes. |
