Popis:	The tissue air ratios far 60Co gamma radiation tabulated in the British Journal of Radiology, supplement 17 are shown to be low by about 2%. A theoretical argument implies that this is due to an error in the measurement of peak scatter factors. Monte Carlo calculations also indicate that peak scatter factors are too low by about 2%.
