A gamma camera ( ), comprising: at least one emission detector ( ), which receives radiation emitted from the body of a subject ( ) and generates signals responsive thereto; a radiation source ( ), which directs radiation toward the body; at least one transmission detector ( ), having a long dimension, which receives radiation transmitted through the body ( ) from the radiation source ( ) and generates signals responsive thereto, wherein the transmission detector ( ) translates in a direction generally perpendicular to the long dimension.

Radiation imaging using simultaneous emission and transmission

A method of acquiring an analog electrical pulse signal caused by a radiation event impinging on a detector crystal and viewed by a plurality of detector units. An image is formed based on a plurality of the events, each of which is captured by some of the detector units. The method of acquiring includes.

Advanced nuclear medicine system

Proximity controls for controlling the proximity of a gamma camera to a patient during a scan of the patient. The proximity controls consist of two spaced apart energy screens, each comprising 200 beams, parallel to and spaced from the detector of the gamma camera. When neither screen is interrupted, the camera is moved towards the patient. When both screens are interrupted, the camera is moved away from the patient. When only the screen farthest from the detector is interrupted, the camera is braked so as not to move away from or towards the patient.
