The radiation energy absorbed in solutions of phosphorus‐32, iodine‐125 and ‐131, mercury‐197 and ‐203 was calculated and tabulated for various time of storage. The influence of geometrical shape of solutions was also evaluated. An experimental verification of calculations was carried out for solutions of iodine‐131, the good agreement was obtained. The possibilities and limitations of the use of external gamma irradiation for estimating the self‐radiation effect were discussed.
