Claim 5:
6. The equipment for performing the method of improving the positron source position determination in an object investigated by the positron emission tomography according to claim 1 wherein it is consisting of a system of n position and energy-sensitive detectors (Di) of gamma rays comprised of a system of detection elements (Dijk), whose placement is described by a three-dimensional coordinate system, whereby the detection elements (Dijk) are connected through an interface to computer used for controlling the detectors (Di) and detection elements (Dijk) and reading, analysis and evaluation of the signals from them with the purpose to reconstruct a three-dimensional depiction of the spatial distribution of the positron source in the investigated object.
