Abstract
A PET camera is provided with a modulator of a material having an atomic number of at least 82. The modulator allows uses doses much higher than the PET system can handle by throttling through just the maximum allowable counting rate. As the counting activity delays, the amount of modulation is reduced so that the camera is kept counting near its maximum limit for the scanning period.
