Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018150135A1] The invention concerns a method of calibrating a gamma spectrometer (30) with inorganic scintillator, the method comprising: emitting a radiation X (14); modifying the emitted radiation X (14) in order to supply a modified radiation (26) to provide a gamma spectrum with at least one energy peak, the energy of which is predetermined; generating by the gamma spectrometer (30) a measured gamma spectrum having said energy peak at a measured energy; comparing the measured energy with the predetermined energy; and determining a correction function. The invention also concerns a calibration device, a calibration system and a gamma spectrometry assembly (1).
