Measurement of 57Co-vitamin B12 uptake using a static whole-body counter

Christine E. Tait, M.Sc. and R. Hesp, B.Sc., M.Inst.P.

Radioisotopes Division, Clinical Research Centre, Watford Road, Harrow, Middlesex HA1 3UJ

Using a whole-body counter which incorporates eight static NaI((Tl) detectors, it has been found possible to measure the absorption of vitamin B12 labelled with 57Co instead of 58Co, with a consequent reduction in absorbed radiation dose to the patient.
