Abstract
A new computer controlled dynamic heart phantom and the connection of an ECG unit to a tomographic gamma camera system, developed for ectomographic imaging, is presented. The phantom is used for validation of the camera. Measurements were performed to test the phantom as well as to study the feasibility of gated imaging in ectomography. The camera is intended for early diagnosis of myocardial and cerebral infarctions.
