“…CCMod is designed to reproduce the response of most common configurations in medical applications composed of a scatterer and an absorber detectors working in time coincidence (Everett et al 1977). However, it can be adapted to accommodate other designs such as one single detector layer system that acts as scatterer and absorber at the same time (Lehner et al 2004, Mihailescu et al 2007, Maier et al 2018, Montémont et al 2017 frequently employed in homeland security applications.…”

Built on top of the Geant4 toolkit, GATE is collaboratively developed for more than 15 years to design Monte Carlo simulations of nuclear-based imaging systems. It is, in particular, used by researchers and industrials to design, optimize, understand and create innovative emission tomography systems. In this paper, we reviewed the recent developments that have been proposed to simulate modern detectors and provide a comprehensive report on imaging systems that have been simulated and evaluated in GATE. Additionally, some methodological developments that are not specific for imaging but that can improve detector modeling and provide computation time gains, such as Variance Reduction Techniques and Artificial Intelligence integration, are described and discussed.

“…Directional detectors (e.g., the CZT Compton camera) were used in much related research. Most of them obtain 2D directional images that used stationary detector systems [38,39,40]. In other research, two fixed-coded aperture cameras were used to estimate the spatial coordinates of a radioactive source by employing triangulation methods [41].…”

Effective radioactive hotspot localization and detection is limited by sensor characteristics (i.e., the long acquisition time and poor angular resolution AR of a gamma camera) that significantly degrade the performance of autonomous exploration in terms of the completion time and accuracy. The goal of this research is to study effective exploration algorithms that take into account these specific sensor limitations. These exploration algorithms are adapted and implemented based on behaviour-based and multi-criteria decision making MCDM approaches on an autonomous robot. The algorithms were also tested in simulation and validated by experiments performed on a real robot. According to the results, the algorithms demonstrate the ability to mitigate the unfavourable effects of the limitations.
