  • Title: A multidetector scintillation camera with 254 channels.
    Author: Sveinsdottir E, Larsen B, Rommer P, Lassen NA.
    Journal: J Nucl Med; 1977 Feb; 18(2):168-74. PubMed ID: 401876.
    Abstract:
    A computer-based scintillation camera has been designed for both dynamic and static radionuclide studies. The detecting head has 254 independent sodium iodide crystals, each with a photomultiplier and amplifier. In dynamic measurements simultaneous events can be recorded, and 1 million total counts per second can be accommodated with less than 0.5% loss in any one channel. This corresponds to a calculated deadtime of 5 nsec. The multidetector camera is being used for 133Xe dynamic studies of regional cerebral blood flow in man and for 99mTc and 197 Hg static imaging of the brain.
