CardioMD AC Option

12.4 Calibration

12.4.1 Point Source Holder

When the AC option is mounted on the CardioMD system, it is not possible to use the tripod point
source holder for performing detector checks and calibration. Instead, you must use the dedicated
point source holder shown in Figure 12.22.
Figure 12.22 Point source holder to be used with AC option
The gantry and source positions are shown in Figure 12.23. The point source holder is designed to
be placed on the floor and will hold the point source at the correct angle.
Note. For checks and calibration of detector 1, the point source holder is slid onto the base of the
CardioMD gantry from the side. This permits calibration of detector 1 even when the CardioMD
system is installed in a room of the minimum required size.
