Abstract
Given an isodose chart for any radium needle, the following formulae enable one to determine the dose-rate at any point in the vicinity of a radium container having the same filtration but different active length and content. The formulae have been used to construct isodose curves for radium needles for which no isodose curves were available and have been found useful in cross-checking new isodose curves obtained from other sources.
