<p>A gamma camera is provided with a calibration device which samples the output signal of a photomultiplier tube/amplifier combination. After sampling, the calibration device determines a mean amplitude from the amplitudes of the samples with the mean amplitude being compared with a reference value, and the gain factor of the amplifier is corrected in order to eliminate a relative discrepancy occurring between the mean value and the reference value. To achieve this, the calibration device comprises a point source, a diaphragm with holes which are situated exactly in front of the centers of the photomultipliers, and a circuit which is controlled by a microprocessor for the sequential calibration of the amplifiers.</p> |
