Created: 2000 Number of pages: 1 p Original source: CDROM-2000-012-IP / POSTERTECH4 Note: Exhibition at the CERN LEP Celebration in October 2000 The Compton Camera reconstructs the origin of Compton-scattered X-rays using electronic collimation with Silicon pad detectors instead of the heavy conventional lead collimators in Anger cameras - reaching up to 200 times better sensitivity and a factor two improvement in resolution. Possible applications are in cancer diagnosis, neurology neurobiology, and cardiology. Keywords: LEPFest 2000
