Abstract

Abstract: The input quantities determination involved in radiopharmaceutical marking used in heart scans allowed to estimate the combined and associated standard uncertainty with the process. The U value demonstrated that any parameter of the quality control process can be compared and correlated to obtain a real value and validation method, indicating or not, the adequacy of institutional practices and reinforcing the importance of the uncertainties associated to the results in medicine.
