Method and apparatus for retrofitting a multi-detector scintillation camera system to perform like a dual-head scintillation camera system of the type which is dedicated to cardiac spect studies.

摘要

A triple-head scintillation camera system is retrofitted so as to perform like a dual-head system of the type which is dedicated to cardiac SPECT applications. This is done by collimating two of the detectors of the system with collimators that so collimate the collimated directions of view of the detectors as to cause the collimated directions of view to subtend a right angle.
