TL;DR: Measured phantom diameter dependence of the true count rate shows good agreement with theoretically anticipated characteristics, including maximum sensitivity at around 30cm dia, and relative system detection efficiency measured with a line source at FOV center is 96% at 15ns time window.

Scintillator for a gamma ray camera
TL;DR: In this paper, a scintillator for a gamma ray camera constituted by a crystal of NaI (Tl) having a surface roughness of less than 400 grit and a thickness of approximately 9 mm was presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of Slice Shield Collimators for Multi-Layer Positron Emission Computed Tomographs
TL;DR: In this article, a slice shield collimator with a relatively small detector ring radius is proposed, which achieves a level of performance similar to that of a conventional collimators with large ring radius.
Patent
Scintillator for gamma ray camera
TL;DR: A scintillator for a gamma ray camera includes a pair of crystals mechanically pressed together and roughened so as to form a photo-diffuser for the light generated as a result of scintillation as discussed by the authors.
