ABSTRACT:
A gamma ray imaging camera system and method for using it are described which in representative embodiments include a gamma ray collimator, a scintillator adjacent the collimator for converting gamma photons into visible photons, a low level visible photon detector including at least two optically coupled inverter tubes, a high-speed lens for imaging the visible photons onto the detector, a video imager for receiving, recording and storing sequential images of the visible photons defining the detector output, and a programmed computer for processing the images and determining the spatial distribution of the images.
