ABSTRACT:
A method and portable apparatus for measuring radiation dose and identifying a source radionuclide. Energy correction to calibrate detected charge to .gamma.-ray energy level is made through the use of naturally occurring radiation from 40K in a potassium compound KCl. One embodiment includes a portable scintillator and photomultiplier (PMT) along with an accumulation memory, an input means, a signal processing circuit, a memory and an output means. A warning function informs of an abnormality when the difference between the measured radiation data and the standard data in the device memory exceeds a predetermined value.
