    Resumen:
    The radiation detectors yield the optimal performance if they are accurately calibrated. This paper presents the energy, resolution and efficiency calibrations for two scintillation detectors, NaI(Tl) and LaBr 3(Ce). For the two former calibrations, several fitting functions were tested. To perform the efficiency calculations, a Monte Carlo user code for the EGS5 code system was developed with several important implementations. The correct performance of the simulations was validated by comparing the simulated spectra with the experimental spectra and reproducing a number of efficiency and activity calculations. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.
