GAMMA CAMERA 
• A camera for nuclear imaging was invented by H. Anger in 
the 1960’s (The Anger camera) 
• Gamma camera is considered as one of the most 
important devices used in the fields of nuclear medicine. 
• Produce functional images of the body parts, used for 
diagnosis purpose.
Anger camera
HOW A GAMMA CAMERA WORKS 
 Patient is injected by radiotracer(radioisotope), emits 
gamma radiation. Then gamma camera scans the 
radiation area and creates an image. 
 To detect the gamma photons we use a large crystal of 
sodium iodide. The crystal gives a tiny flash of visible 
light every time a gamma photon hits it. This flash is 
picked up by photomultipliers which convert the flash 
into an electrical signal. The electrical signals from the 
photomultipliers are analyzed by a computer to 
construct an image.
COMPONENTS OF GAMMA CAMERA 
 Collimator 
 Detector 
 PMT(photomultiplier tool) 
 Position localization circuit 
 Correction circuitry 
 Monitor
COLLIMATOR 
 Made up of large number of small holes drilled in a 
plate of lead. 
 Provide right direction 
Types 
-parallel hole 
-pin hole 
-converging 
-diverging
DETECTORS 
 Converts received radiations into light photons 
 Used scintillation detectors (NaI)
PMT(PHOTOMULTIPLIER TOOL) 
 Its an evacuated glass tube 
 Perform two functions 
 1st conversion of light photons 
 2nd signal amplification
POSITION LOCALIZATION CIRCUIT 
 Provide positional information
COMPUTER 
 Process incoming data 
 Display it as a readable image 
 Store images
