Sl.No. Synosis Points
1 This standard focuses on radiological protection and the measurement of radioactivity. It specifies a rapid screening method for quantifying the activity concentration of gamma-emitting radionuclides—such as 131I, 132Te, 134Cs and 137Cs —in both solid and liquid test samples. The method utilizes gamma-ray spectrometry with lower-resolution scintillation detectors, providing a faster alternative to high-purity germanium (HPGe) detectors (refer to IEC 61563), while maintaining reliable detection suitable for screening purposes.
