In vivo measurement of body nitrogen by analysis of prompt gammas from neutron capture.

D Vartsky, K J Ellis, S H Cohn.   

Abstract

A method for the in vivo determination of body nitrogen by prompt gamma photons from neutron capture is described. An 85-Ci 238Pu-Be source provides the neutrons. The gamma detection system consists of two 15.24 x 15.24 cm Nal(TI) detectors placed above the patient. Absolute value of body nitrogen is determined using body hydrogen as an internal standard. The reproducibility of the method is +/- 3% for a body dose of 26 mrem.
