Abstract
A method and apparatus for calibrating the sensors of a radiation detector by collecting a radiation spectrum detected by the detector during an irradiation, calculating a peak energy location from the collected radiation spectrum, determining if the peak energy location is mislocated from a desired location; and adjusting the gain setting for the selected radiation sensor so that the peak energy location is no longer mislocated from the desired location.
