Do folks use their cesium irradiator pending dosimetry testing results?  We test following annual PM and repairs to the turntable and currently wait for the results that can take up to 10 days.

Think logically about this.  The decay rate will not change.  Dosimetry is verifying the irradiation map of the canister or chamber.  If you have a way to verify the mechanical parts, then you should be good to go.  And the indicator is the run "QC" similar to run QC that we do with testing.  The most important part of the irradiator is the timer, that's what's governing the exposure.
