Figure 4

The count rate performance evaluation setup is shown. The 99mTc vial was placed in a lead pig to simulate narrow beam geometry. Copper sheets in 2-mm increment were placed in front of the 99mTc source to serve as an attenuator and to simulate different count rates. The 99mTc source was placed at a distance so that the entire intrinsic detector was flooded.
