An 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 کاملNmis - 07 Submitted to Ieee Transactions on Nuclear Science , March 2002 Second
We consider detection of high-energy photons in PET using thick scintillation crystals. Parallax effect and multiple Compton interactions such crystals significantly reduce the accuracy of conventional detection methods. In order to estimate the photon line of flight based on photomultiplier responses, we use asymptotically optimal nonlinear techniques, implemented by feed-forward and radial ba...
متن کاملNew approach for calibration of pixelated scintillation detectors of intraoperative gamma cameras
Introduction:SURGEOSIGHT is a dedicated intra-operative hand-held gamma camera designed and manufactured by our team to be used for lymphoscintigraphy. Although conventional gamma cameras are widely used, they lack the capability of the sentinel lymph node (SLN) imaging in the operation room. Like conventional gamma cameras it is necessary to calibrate SURGEOSIGHT for linearity...
متن کاملClinical Significance of Scintillation Camera Electronics
Recent advances in collimator design and detector size, combined with radiopharmaceuticals having high photon yield, have resulted in diagnostic tests that may deliver photon fluxes in excess of the levels at which scintillation cameras can process the data. Moreover, these high rates of photon input may im pair certain parameters of image quality (1 ,2). For certain diagnostic tests, such as c...
متن کاملA Small Scintillation Camera for Imaging in One Dimension
Following the initial development of the scintillation camera by Anger (1), further improvements and innovations have led to its extensive use in such areas as diagnostic oncology, organ deliniation, and physiological function studies. Indeed, in the last few years, the scintillation camera has evolved to serve a variety of applications in the medical field (2). The development of a one-dimensi...
