Radionuclide identification device information


A radionuclide identification device (RID or RIID) is a small, lightweight, portable gamma-ray spectrometer used for the detection and identification of radioactive substances.[1] As RIIDs are portable, they are suitable for medical and industrial applications, fieldwork, geological surveys, first-line responders in Homeland Security,[2][3] and Environmental Monitoring and Radiological Mapping along with other industries that necessitate the identification of radioactive substances..
