![]() The physical parameters are a high sensitivity of 5000 cps/MBq at probe tip with good spatial resolution. The detector probe is based on the scintillation detector housed in a stainless steel housing with lead collimator. The system consists of microcomputer-based gamma counting system that displays the number of pulses detected by the probe in counts per second and has an audible signal in direct correlation with the count density. ![]() Isotope Applications Division, BARC has developed indigenously a RIG Surgical Gamma Probe in consultation with the doctors from Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute and Research Centre, New Delhi. It enables the localization of the active node. The surgical gamma probe is a hand-held device used in the localization of SLN. Early detection is carried out by collecting a sentinel lymph node (SLN) and testing it for cancer. Choudhary, P.S.īreast cancer is one of the most common cancers in women, which if detected in early stage can be effectively treated and cured. Singh, Gursharan Kumar, Umesh Pendharkar, A.S.
