Whatever happened to that Wisconsin lab that did calibrations? I used to use them ~10yrs ago for my Radcal.

Isn’t RaySafe now owned by Fluke? Might the RaySafe equipment have been in the Fluke booth? Peace, Loretta Loretta Johnson, Ph. D. , DABR, FAAPM | Associate Professor Director | Division of Physics and Engineering Department of Radiology | Heersink

This might be correlated, but at the past couple of conferences I've gone to (RSNA, AAPM, ECR), there has not been a booth for RaySafe in the vendor area. I feel like that's a bad sign? Peter Watson, PhD, MCCPM (masculine pronouns) Medical Physicist,

Does anyone know why Raysafe is sending their X2 calibrations to Sweden?

As with previous bouts of calibration delays, Raysafe is disclosing very little information about the reasons for the change, and they are giving very vague estimates of the turnaround time. One of our systems has passed the one-month mark, and it is in the service program which promises a faster turnaround times.
