Abstract
A new approach to the evaluation of the conical collimator response function is shown. The basic collimator formulae are reviewed. The collimator response function has been found in a very easy way. An approximate solution has been introduced. Studying the response of a measuring systcm, the use of this approxirnation strongly reduces the complexity of the relations to be used; therefore it would provide a useful starting point for a Monte Carlo calculation. The errorr introduced are less ihan 10%. Approximate relations that allow the evaluation of the response of conical and cylindrical collimators lo plane and line source are also given.
