Abstract
To capture more emitted photons with a Compton camera, the scatter detector is tilted (non-orthogonal angle) relative to a radial from the isocenter of the imaging system. The tilt creates a greater volume for scatter interaction. To capture more scatter photons, the catcher detector is non-planar, such as a multi-faced detector at least partially surrounding a volume behind the scatter detector. The tilted scatter detector alone, the non-planar catcher detector alone, or the tilted scatter detector and the non-planar catcher detector are used in the Compton camera.
