摘 要:A set of point spread functions (PSF) has been obtained by means of Monte-Carlo simulation for asmall gamma camera with a pinhole collimator of various hole diameters. The FOV (field of view) of the camera isexpended from 45 mm to 70 mm in diameter. The position dependence of the variances of PSF is presented, and theacceptance for the 140 kev gamma rays is explored. A phantom of 70 mm in diameter was experimentally imaged inthe camera with effective FOV of only 45 mm in diameter.
