    This device enables gamma camera detectors to be positioned below patients on standard medical couches. It utilizes a simple acrylic disk mechanism for precise alignment with the detector crystal.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging Physics
    • Instrumentation Engineering

    Context:

    • Gamma cameras are crucial for nuclear medicine imaging.
    • Detector positioning is critical for image quality and patient comfort.
    • Existing setups may limit detector placement flexibility.

    Purpose:

    • To describe a novel, cost-effective device for gamma camera detector positioning.
    • To facilitate the use of standard medical couches with gamma cameras.
    • To enhance the adaptability of gamma imaging systems.

    Summary:

    • A device is presented, comprising a gamma chamber pillar attachment with a freely moving acrylic disk.
    • The acrylic disk is designed to be coaxial and equal in size to the gamma chamber's detector crystal.
    • This setup allows the gamma camera detector to be effectively placed beneath patients on conventional medical couches with porolone mattresses.
