“…On the other hand, our resolution is approximately a factor of ∼2 worse than the values reported in Ref. [17,26] for similar focal distances. This difference can be ascribed to the maximum likelihood expectation maximization (ML-EM) method used in the latter work for the position reconstruction, and also to the better spectroscopic performance of their detectors.…”

“…By applying the configuration of the hybrid camera as proposed in this paper, these Compton cameras can perform pinhole imaging without compromising on the performance of the original Compton camera. Currently, we are developing a new hybrid camera that covers 20 keV to 5 MeV by adopting the DOI configuration of the scintillator as described in Kishimoto et al (2017) 14 and Hosokoshi et al (2019) 32 .

“…We argue that such difficulties can be easily overcome with the hybrid camera proposed in this paper. This increases the variety of radioactive tracers available for nuclear medicine 14 18 . The emergence of new tracers may solve current problems, such as manufacturing costs of tracers, in addition to achieving improvements in the diagnosis quality.…”

“…The camera consists of Ce-doped Gd 3 Al 2 Ga 3 O 12 12, 13 and multi-pixel photon counter arrays in both the scatterer and absorber 1418 . The medical Compton camera is compact (4.9 cm × 5.6 cm × 10.6 cm) and light (580 g).…”
