ABSTRACT:
A positioner apparatus for a scintillation camera comprises a rotating frame unit, a camera fork mounting provided on the unit for totatably mounting and rotating a camera fork about a first axis, and an eccentric mounting for rotatably mounting the camera to ends of the fork, and for rotating the camera about a second axis extending between the fork ends and at an offset distance with respect to the first axis. By rotating the camera 180.degree. about the second axis and the fork 180.degree. about the first axis, an aperture of the camera faces in the same direction, but at a different radial position for CAT scans.
