Course Learning Outcomes

Order Course Learning Outcomes
LO01 Information on the inspection of Gama Cameras, the most widely used detectors in Nuclear Envy, and the objective principles and services of routine quality control
LO02 Radionuclide imaging is to obtain an image of the distribution of the organ or organs marked with this radioactive substance in the body after the radioactive substance has been administered to the intended patient in various ways
LO03 The basic principle is that the source organs radiate and the gamma detectors detect and image these rays
LO04 Gamma photons emitted from the organs in the gamma camera are directed by the collimator and dropped onto the thallium-activated sodium iodide crystal NaI (Tl), which is the detector element
LO05 The collimator is the element located in the front of the crystal in the gamma camera in order to direct the gamma rays coming from the organs to the detector, to absorb the gamma rays that are scattered to the compton by the gamma rays outside it
LO06 It is used to increase the clarity of the image (resolution) Because of the good absorption of the gamma rays in the construction of the collimators heavy elements are used
