Abstract

See full text

A novel PET calibration phantom structure is disclosed that has reduced overall weight and reduced radiation shielding requirement while still enabling safe handling. Furthermore, when the phantom is not being used, the β+ radiation source can be turned off or removed from the phantom, thus, lowering the radiation exposure risk to those handling the phantom.
