Improvement of visual resolution in fluorescent scanning by a new subtraction procedure for backscatter.
A new subtraction method was developed to improve visual resolution in fluorescent scanning. A digital gate circuit could subtract backscatter of a fluorescing gamma ray source in real time without the need for a computer for postprocessing of the image data.
