Modification of a rectilinear scanner to improve 67Ga scans.
A simple and inexpensive electrical modification of the pulse-height analyzers of the Ohio-Nuclear Model 84FD rectilinear scanner, which allows the use of wide pulse-height intervals, is described. The modified instrument is applied to 67Ga scanning, in which the increase acceptance of gamma rays produces scans of increased count density and improved image quality.
