Field gamma dose-rate measurement with a NaI(Tl) detector: re-evaluation of the "threshold" technique
Radiation detectors, like doped NaI, are commonly used in the field for the determination of gamma dose-rates. In most cases, and even though these systems generally allow one to record the full gamma spectrum between 0 to around 3 MeV, this dose-rate is computed from the count rates recorded in a limited number of "windows" (Aitken, 1985). With this technique, only a small part of the spectrum...
متن کاملSiPM-MAROC gamma-camera prototype with monolithic NaI(Tl) scintillator.
National Research Nuclear University, Moscow Engineering Physics Institute, Russia A full-body gamma-camera based on SiPM readout is currently under development as a part of MEPHI R activity supported in the framework of Russian Megagrants program. A goal of this development is a fast upgrade of existing medical equipment with minor changes in a system design and construction in order to combin...
متن کاملAn alternative mathematical modeling of the scintillation camera and framework for performance analysis of gamma-ray positioning algorithms
Introduction: Substantive amount of work has been done in modeling and analyzing the scintillation camera system processes including positioning and image formation. The goal of this work is to develop a framework for analyzing performance of nonlinear positioning methods upon construction of a mathematical model of the system. In this study, the photodetector array counts are ...
متن کاملDetermination of the dead-time losses in NaI(Tl) gamma-ray spectrometer
The 12 NaI(Tl)-detector gamma-ray spectrometry system (GSS) “Romashka”[1,2] has recently been equipped with a new computer controlled HVSys 16 channel high-voltage power supply with preselected single channel polarity [3] (Fig.1). In order to do some preliminary checks of the GSS chains’ characteristics, a single channel gamma-spectrometry tract was commissioned. It was consist of a single Roma...
متن کاملPerformance assessment of a NaI(Tl) gamma counter for PET applications with methods for improved quantitative accuracy and greater standardization
BACKGROUND Although NaI(Tl) gamma counters play an important role in many quantitative positron emission tomography (PET) protocols, their calibration for positron-emitting samples has not been standardized across imaging sites. In this study, we characterized the operational range of a gamma counter specifically for positron-emitting radionuclides, and we assessed the role of traceable (68)Ge/...
