  • Ratios were obtained by dividing activity readout from chamber for each 18F-FDG source by NIST-calibrated activity for that source. Uncertainties on response ratios were calculated from SD on average measured ratio from 3 sources and average uncertainties on 68Ge and 18F activities in mock syringes.
