A Positron CT Camera System Using Multiwire Proportional Chambers as Detectors

Abstract

This article reports on a positron computerized tomography camera system using multiwire proportional chambers (MWPC) as detectors. This system is composed of two high-density MWPC gamma-ray detectors, an electronic readout system and a computer for data processing. Three-dimensional tomography is obtained. The imaging matrix is 64 x 64 x 16. Keywords: China; Translations; Chinese language.
