The Spintharicon: A New Approach to Radiation Imaging

Norman H. Horwitz, Ph.D.1, James E. Lofstrom, M.D.1 and Ann L. Forsaith, M.S.1

Royal Oak, Michigan

ABSTRACT

The spark discharge method of imaging has been found to be a simple and relatively inexpensive method of obtaining radioisotope distribution patterns. The images are of high resolution and are obtained in about one half the time required for a conventional scintillation scan.

As the development of this principle continues it is expected that an increased sensitivity will permit time-lapse imaging.
