Abstract
The Anger scintillation camera greatly broadens the range of studies performed by radioisotope imaging devices. Its ability to view in any direction, to make an image simultaneously of an entire field of view, and to obtain images rapidly, all serve to make scintiphotography analogous to fluoroscopy. Illustrations of its uses in static and dynamic gammaphotography and in numerical data processing are described.
