Which gamma camera?
Performance data on seven currently available gamma cameras have been presented. Where appropriate, results from both the DHSS and NEMA are included. It should be emphasized that no 'best buy' exists for all types of nuclear medicine application and that the performance figures presented in this paper must be interpreted in the light of clinical priorities. No mention has been made of optional extras for a camera system, long-term system reliability, availability of efficient servicing and last but not least, cost. Such details will no doubt be considered as important as the basic performance of the camera. Finally, continued improvements in gamma camera design and performance are likely to necessitate a further communication in the not too distant future.
