Transmission coefficientsfor compounds of some biomedically important elements (Na, Mg, Al, Ca and Fe) have been measured by using an extremely narrow collimated-beam transmission method in the energy 59.5 keV. Gamma-rays of 241Am passed through compounds were detected with a high-resolution Si(Li) detector and using energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometer (EDXRF). Results are presented and discussed in this paper.
