  • Abstract
    A method for measuring the relative Imaging Plate (IP) sensitivity at any location was developed by using 32P radioactive point sources. IP sensitivity distribution demonstrated a definite gradient which depended upon the direction of insertion of the IP into the inherent image reader in an imaging analyzer system. Nonuniformity was effectively corrected by a simple calculation with the reciprocal numbers of the average relative sensitivity.
