Photon energy, location of Gaussian fit, and calculated energy resolution
Isotope | Photon energy (keV) | Gaussian fit center (keV) | FWHM/E0 ± SD |
---|---|---|---|
99mTc | 141 | 142 ± 1.3 | 67% ± 1.3% |
133Ba | 344 | 340 ± 1.9 | 67% ± 2.6% |
18F | 511 | 515 ± 4.4 | 42% ± 3.2% |
137Cs | 662 | 666 ± 5.6 | 32% ± 4.2% |
Note that the photon energy used for 133Ba is a weighted average of the three photon emissions near the most abundant (356 keV).
