Title: Process and device for determining radio isotopes

Patent ·
OSTI ID:4298441

A process and device for ray diagnosis are used to determine the distribution of radioactive isotopes located in a body by a line by line feeling of a measured surface through which the rays pass. The feeling takes place by means of a measuring probe which changes the intensity distribution into a sequence of in pulses which are summed up one after the other through adjustable partial lengths of image rows in an integration counter combined with an inscribing device operated by the sums of impalses to provide an image reproducing the intensity distribution. The invention is particularly characterized in that the sums of impulses are fed to corresponding sections of storing elements and are transmitted for operating the inscribing device at the earliest during the feeling of the next image line.
