The core-saturation technique for calculating the radiation field in spectral lines (Rybicki, 1971) is extended to cases where partial redistribution is important. The authors discretize the frequency space and derive a general vector equation relating the source function S to the mean intensities. The components of S are then used in a lambda iteration to determine the specific intensities. Numerical tests show that the efficiency and accuracy of this method are maintained.
