Do any of you have experience with leak testing of radiography sources,
specifically, Iridium and depleted uranium(in the camera)? Apparently it
is wiped with a Q-tip. How do you count the q-tip, other than by liquid
scintillation? Have you tried dissolving the radionuclide out of the q-tip?
Any hints would be helpful.
Thanks
