Gamma Ray Spectroscopy

Gamma ray spectroscopy is a technique used to identify radiological gamma sources.
It utilizes a proven and sensitive inorganic scintillator, sodium iodide [NaI(Tl)], to capture gamma photons and convert them to measurable energy and form a spectrum.Unique algorithms are applied to interpret specific emission energies or "peaks" in the spectrum, shielding characteristics as well as other spectral features necessary to pin-point the source of radiological gamma isotope(s).
