ABSTRACT:
The nuclear scintillation camera system has an improved positioner including a drum which is rotatable on a frame which may be linearly moved along a track. The camera is cantilevered to the drum and is able to rotate about the axis of the cantilever as well as about an axis perpendicular to the axis of the cantilever and parallel to the plane of the camera crystal. The frame may be moved along the track with the camera in a given position for doing linear body scans, and with the patient positioned along the axis of the drum, scans around the patient may be carried out for emission computed tomography (ECT). The system also provides a collimator changer stand for exchange and storage of collimeters for use with the nuclear scintillation camera. The system according to the invention makes nuclear scintillation imaging easier to carry out.
