Compton imaging exploits inelastic scattering, known as Compton scattering, using a
Compton camera consisting of a scatterer detector in the front layer and an absorber …

Compton imaging has been used for various applications including astronomical
observations, radioactive waste management, and biomedical imaging. The positions of …

Compton cameras use the kinematics of Compton scattering to construct a source image
without the use of collimators or masks. Compton telescopes were first built in the 1970s for …

Compton cameras have been developed for use in gamma-ray astronomy and nuclear
medicine. Their defining merit is that they do not need collimators; however, on the demerit …

Compton imaging is a promising gamma-ray imaging method based on the Compton
scattering kinematics due to high Compton scattering probability for sub-MeV to MeV …

The history of Compton cameras began with the detection of radiation sources originally for
applications in astronomy. A Compton camera is a promising γ-ray detector that operates in …

The finite range of a proton beam in tissue opens new vistas for the delivery of a highly
conformal dose distribution in radiotherapy. However, the actual particle range, and …

Since the discovery of nuclear gamma-rays, its imaging has been limited to pseudo imaging,
such as Compton Camera (CC) and coded mask. Pseudo imaging does not keep physical …

Compton imaging or Compton camera imaging has been studied well, but its advantages in
nuclear medicine and molecular imaging have not been demonstrated yet. Therefore, the …

Positron-emission tomography (PET) and single-photon-emission computed tomography
(SPECT) are well-established nuclear-medicine imaging methods used in modern medical …
