A method of measuring radioactivity comprising determining a fitted spectral distribution region for recorded counts data of at least a first activity peak, determining characteristic data of the fitted spectral distribution region, and using the characteristic data to determine a spectral distribution region of a second activity peak.
A radioactivity measurement apparatus comprising a data processor and a radioactivity detector, the data processor configured to determine a fitted spectral distribution region for recorded counts data of at least a first activity peak, determining characteristic data of the fitted spectral distribution, and using the characteristic data to determine a spectral distribution region of a second activity peak.
Machine-readable instructions for a data processor of a radioactivity measurement apparatus, the instructions comprising instructions to cause the processor to determine a fitted spectral distribution region for recorded counts data of at least a first activity peak, instructions to cause the processor to determine characteristic data of the fitted spectral distribution region, and instructions to cause the processor to use the characteristic data to determine a spectral distribution region of a second activity peak.
