The mean numbers per disintegration, n , and equilibrium‐dose constants Δ for the various emissions of 201 Tl were computed. The sums of the penetrating and nonpenetrating equilibrium‐dose constants are 0.1931 and 0.0874 g rad/μCi h, respectively. The S factor, the value of that portion of the MIRD dose equation which is independent of biological distribution, was calculated for various combinations of target and source organs.
