Evaluation of the Hubbell integral for an omnidirectional detector response to a rectangular plaque gamma emitting radiation source using a different numerical computation method on a personal computer was made. For a plaque consisting of several strip gamma emitters, exposure rates at different positions above the source were calculated using 'exact' evaluation and an approximate method. Optimization method is used to find source activity of each strip, so as to acquire desirable dose uniformity of the irradiated products. In uses of the Hubbell integral, by introducing appropriate programming, computation time can be saved.
