Abstract
To reduce the costs of manufacture of a nuclear medicine machine, there is provided a machine whose detector is not mobile. In order, nevertheless, to give it extensive possibilities of adaptation, an input face of the detector is made in a concave curved shape. As a variant, with a mobility that is simple to achieve, it is even possible to take account of the differences in size among patients.
