Nuclear Medicine QC & Calibration

Your measurement chain
starts here.

A dose calibrator without a verified reference source cannot be relied upon. A SPECT/CT system requires periodic sensitivity calibration with the right geometry source. A PET scanner needs normalization sources matched to your specific system. These are not optional steps — they are the foundation of accurate nuclear medicine measurement.

Available in Germany through Oncosia Scientific — authorised distributor of Radnostix calibration and reference products.

Calibration & Reference Sources

Sealed calibration and reference sources for the full range of nuclear medicine measurement workflows — from daily dose calibrator QC to SPECT sensitivity calibration, PET scanner acceptance testing, and pre-clinical imaging research.

PET Imaging

PET Calibration Sources

Ge-68/Ga-68 and F-18 compatible sealed sources for PET scanner normalization, acceptance testing, and routine QC. Configurations are available for specific camera systems including GE Discovery and others. Sources are supplied with full traceability documentation and a decay calendar.

The Complete Measurement Chain

From Source Calibration to Patient Dose.
The Full Chain, From One Partner.

Accurate dosimetry does not begin at the software. It begins with a traceable, well-characterised measurement chain — starting from the dose calibrator that measures the administered activity, through the SPECT/CT acquisition that quantifies the radiopharmaceutical distribution, to the absorbed dose calculation that guides the next treatment cycle.

Every step in that chain depends on the physical calibration infrastructure that precedes it. A dose calibrator verified with a traceable source. A SPECT system with a documented sensitivity factor from a validated phantom study. Scanner QC performed with the right geometry source for your specific camera.

Oncosia Scientific is your partner in Germany that provides both the calibration and reference sources that underpin that chain, and the dosimetry expertise and software to complete it. For departments implementing patient-specific dosimetry — or preparing to — the measurement chain starts here.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our calibration sources.

Practical and regulatory questions we hear from nuclear medicine departments and medical physicists before they order.

Have a question that isn't covered here? Contact us — we're happy to advise before you order.

Contact Oncosia Scientific directly — we handle everything from product selection through to delivery and import documentation. Use the quote form on this page or reach us by email. You'll deal with one contact throughout.
Lead times depend on the product and isotope. Long-lived sealed sources (Co-57, Ge-68, Eu-152, etc.) typically ship within a few weeks of order. Contact us for current availability and a realistic timeline for your specific requirement.
Yes, and we recommend it. We can set up a replacement schedule based on your source's half-life and your QC programme. For SPECT sensitivity sources and PET normalization sources in particular, advance planning ensures no gap in your QC cycle.
Contact us with your camera manufacturer and model, and what you need to measure or verify. Matching the right source geometry, activity, and configuration to a specific camera system is something we do routinely — we'll confirm the right product before anything is ordered.
Usually yes. We have access to a broad product catalogue, and for less common or legacy systems, custom configurations may also be available. Get in touch and we'll work it out.
Every source ships with a Certificate of Calibration, a Leak Test Certificate, and a Decay Calendar. The calibration certificate documents the activity, reference date, measurement geometry, and the traceability chain back to the primary standard. This is supplied as standard with every order — no separate request is needed.
It means the stated activity at the reference date can be traced through an unbroken measurement chain to a primary national or international standard. This is documented on the calibration certificate and is what makes a source suitable for dose calibrator accuracy testing and scanner sensitivity calibration under quality assurance requirements.
We handle the import and export documentation on our end, as part of our normal operations. Your facility's Strahlenschutzbeauftragter is responsible for ensuring sources are covered under your facility's existing licence — or that the appropriate permit is in place — before delivery. If you're unsure about the requirements, we're happy to talk through what to expect.
It depends on the isotope's half-life and your minimum usable activity threshold. Co-57 (T½ ≈ 272 days) and Ge-68 (T½ ≈ 271 days) sources are typically replaced every one to two years. Eu-152 (T½ ≈ 13.5 years) sources have a significantly longer useful life. Each source ships with a decay calendar to help you plan replacement timing.
Yes, if it's in the S-Vial format. The S-Vial is specifically designed to allow calibration in both the syringe and vial positions using a single source, which simplifies the QC protocol and reduces the number of sources you need to maintain.
