Title: Positron ring system using anger-type detectors. Progress report, January 1-December 31, 1986

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5150502

The design of a new multislice system consisting of six position-sensitive area detectors has been completed, and the system is now in the final assembly phase. This system will be able to reconstruct a volume 50 cm in diameter and 10 cm long with equal resolution of 4 to 5 mm in all directions. The system achieves high sensitivity through a large acceptance angle which is made possible through the use of three-dimensional reconstruction algorithms.
