Abstract

The use of stable tracers assayed by x-ray fluorescent excitation analysis has proven advantageous over other stable or radioisotopic techniques in a number of clinical and investigative situations. An automated fluorescent excitation analysis system for medical application has developed. Its design parameters and performance are described.
