BIPM.RI(II)-K1.F-18 and BIPM.RI(II)-K4.F-18
MEASURAND Equivalent activity of F-18
Key comparison reference value: the SIR key comparison reference value xR for this radionuclide is xR = 15 300 kBq with a standard uncertainty uR = 18 kBq
(see Section 7 of the BIPM.RI(I)-K4.F-18 Final Report). The value xi is taken as the equivalent activity for a laboratory i.
The degree of equivalence of each laboratory i with respect to the reference value is given by a pair of terms:
Di = (xi - xR) and Ui its expanded uncertainty (k = 2), both expressed in MBq, and
Ui = 2((1 - 2wi)ui2 + u2R)1/2, where wi is the weight of laboratory i contributing to the calculation of xR.
The degrees of equivalence are also given in relative terms by Di = (xI - xR) /xR and its expanded uncertainty Ui at a 95 % level of confidence, both expressed in kBq/MBq.
Linking BIPM.RI(II)-K4.F-18 to BIPM.RI(II)-K1.F-18
The value xi is the SIRTI equivalent activity for laboratory i participant in BIPM.RI(II)-K4.F-18 multiplied by the linking factor to BIPM.RI(II)-K1.F-18.
The degree of equivalence of laboratory i participant in BIPM.RI(II)-K4.F-18 with respect to the reference value is given by a pair of terms:
Di = (xi - xR) and Ui, its expanded uncertainty (k = 2), both expressed in MBq. The approximation Ui = 2(ui2 + uR2)1/2 is used in the table of degrees of equivalence.
These statements make it possible to extend the BIPM.RI(II)-K1.F-18 matrices of equivalence to all participants in the BIPM.RI(II)-K4.F-18 comparisons
