Compton Camera for Multitracer
Abstract
The present status of the development of a Compton camera system for multitracer imaging is presented. The suitability of this system is confirmed by a test experiment using existing segmented planar germanium (Ge) detectors. A practical method is introduced in order to reconstruct a distribution image of spatially distributed γ-ray sources. It is shown that the depth position of γ-ray interaction in the Ge detector can be deduced by measuring the time difference between signals from cathode and anode.
