A Third Generation Digital Gamma Camera

A new digital gamma camera system, Scinticor, TM has been developed which incorporates advances in 1) scintillation crystal design, 2) high speed digital signal processing electronics, 3) high sensitivity collimation, 4) real time data corrections, and 5) fiber optic digital data transmission. Hardware implementation is described and technical performance standards are presented.© (1984) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.
