For the exposure in autoradiography using IP, can we use other cassettes other than the BAS cassette? |
 |

It is possible to use other medical X-ray cassette for autoradiography using IP. However, medical X-ray cassettes generally have lead plate on their lids, which makes higher background images due to the lead when exposing for more than 24 hours to detect a small amount of RI. So, they are not appropriate for long-time exposure.
Also, it is also possible in principle to use the cassette for film autoradiography, but IR is far more sensitive to a small amount of radioactive contamination than film, which might cause some problems. When using the cassette for film, please make sure there is no such contamination of RI. |

How high are the energy levels of x-ray that transmits the bottom faces of BAS cassette? |
