ABSTRACT:
Point source responses of pinhole apertures in a non-uniform grid mask used to spatially calibrate a gamma camera can be modeled as a two-dimensional Gaussian function with a set of seven parameters. The Gaussian parameters can be measured using a surface-fitting algorithm that seeks minimum error in the least squares sense. The process is repeated for data from each pinhole location and the data are added together to generate a complete model of the flood image from the mask, which then can be used in a peak detection process for clinical images.
