Abstract :
The final configuration of our small gamma-camera for medical applications is presented. Emphasis has been put on low cost and portability. The camera, based on a scintillator crystal and a position-sensitive photomultiplier tube, has a useful field of view of 4.6 cm diameter and provides around 2 mm of intrinsic spatial resolution. In its final configuration, the camera weights less than 2 kg and the collimator is of the pinhole type. The camera is only connected through a single USB cable to a portable PC. It images small organs with high efficiency as proven with patients at the hospital.
