An existing electron swarm apparatus has been redesigned and upgraded. In particular, the new design incorporates a novel planar radioactive foil to form an integral part of the drift tube, allowing us to overcome inherent problems present in our ear

A method to remove the interference between attenuation correction and scatter subtraction has been developed for the QPET 3D imaging system at Queen's University. Because the detector system has more than 10(10) lines of response, we reconstruct the

Describes the reconstruction procedure for the three-dimensional positron imaging system, QPET, at Queen's University. Because the detectors have 1010 coincidence projection lines, the backprojection step is performed first using a new area-overlap a

A method is presented for attenuation correction for The Queen's University 3-D PET (positron emission tomography) system using a flood source. Transmission data are coarsely binned into projections and the scatter contribution is subtracted. The emi

We describe a patient who had the recent onset of both primary hyperparathyroidism and parkinsonism. Surgical removal of a parathyroid adenoma was followed by spontaneous resolution of the parkinsonism. Hypoparathyroidism and other disorders of calci

A method to remove the scattered background from a reconstructed image by deconvolution with a point response function which includes the scatter contribution is presented. The amplitude of the scattered response function is obtained by constraining

An accurate attenuation correction has been developed for a small-volume three-dimensional positron emission tomography (PET) system. Transmission data were measured as twenty-four 2D slices which were reconstructed and combined to form a 3D attenuat

A prototype positron emission tomography (PET) system has been designed for high-resolution imaging of small volumes. The detectors use Pb converter stacks and multiwire proportional counters (MWPC); the data acquisition components and image reconstr

Compton scattering of gamma rays within the image volume has been assessed for a large-aperture positron-emission-tomography imaging system. The Compton scattered attenuation and the Compton scattered background were both modeled and measured for poi
