The Southern Scientific Ceiling Monitor has been developed to provide activity monitoring of therapy patients following administration ofradioactive therapeutic treatment.

Typically the monitoring detector(s) is mounted in the ceiling above the patient bed (generally behind the ceiling tiles). A lead shield is used to collimate the detector to improve measurement response.

The system is available with a range of optional detector configurations, the selection of which is dependent on the application. i.e. the isotope of interest, the expected activity range and the distance to the patient bed.

The system has two key advantages:

  1. To follow ALARA regarding unnecessary exposure to staff
  2. Improve security and safety - with assurance that the patient is resident in the therapy ward

Options

  1. GM Detector : Used for high range activity measurements.
  2. GM and NaI(Tl) Spect Detector : Used for high range and low range activity measurements by use of an additional sensitive gamma probe and Multi-Channel Analyser (MCA).

Total Activity Measurement Software (TAMS)

The Southern Scientific Total Activity Measurement Software (TAMS) remotely records the patient activity. It is possible to plot and review the data, allowing the calculation of equivalent dose rate. This can assist in making the decision as to when the patient is safe to leave the department.

Please note: TAMS does not incorporate the MCA software for the spectroscopy option - spectroscopy measurements are managed in a separate program.

Probes

The Southern Scientific SS315 Pancake Geiger Probe, and the SS550 2"x2" NaI(Tl) Scintillation Probe are available for use with this system.
