Title: Distortion in converging collimator scintiphotography. Author: Murphy PH, Burdine JA. Journal: Radiology; 1977 Oct; 125(1):227-30. PubMed ID: 897174. Abstract: Distortion is intrinsic to converging collimator scintiphotography although converging collimation offers improved resolution and sensitivity. The nature of the distortion is defined and compared to nondistorted parallel-hole collimator images. The analogy between long and short focal-film-distance radiographs, and parallel and converging hole collimators, is discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
