LabSOCS™

Description

The LabSOCS (Laboratory Sourceless Calibration Software) mathematical efficiency calibration software brings a new level of capabilities to gamma sample assay in the laboratory by eliminating the need for radioactive sources for efficiency calibration. By combining the detector characterization produced with the MCNP modeling code, mathematical geometry templates, and a few physical sample parameters, the LabSOCS Calibration Software gives you the ability to produce accurate quantitative gamma assays of most any sample type and size.

In addition to saving money by greatly eliminating the need to purchase, track, and dispose of many calibration sources, LabSOCS Calibration also saves time and labor. This near-instant ability to generate new efficiency calibrations can help the laboratory operator deliver results to the end-user more quickly whenever presented with new or unusual samples to count. Instead of weeks spent in the traditional process of radioactive source procurement, standards preparation, and long calibration counts, a LabSOCS Calibration requires only a few seconds of computer time. Having this tool also allows the user to determine the optimum sample container size and placement for maximum efficiency, which can then reduce the counting time.
