A detailed investigation of new scintillation crystals, produced by CRYTUR spol. s r.o. (Czech Republic), is presented. Pulse height distributions have been measured as a function of photon energy, in order to evaluate the Energy Resolution.

Abstract
A detailed investigation of new scintillation crystals, produced by CRYTUR spol. s r.o. (Czech Republic), is presented. Pulse height distributions have been measured as a function of photon energy, in order to evaluate the Energy Resolution. The crystals have shown promising performances for gamma ray imaging applications as the short scintillation decay time that makes these scintillation crystals attractive for the improvement of a wide range of applications in Nuclear Medicine, like PET and SPECT instrumentations.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
