Patent ID: 8094894

Claim:
A radioactive-emission-measuring-probe system, for tomographic imaging of a body structure of the patient, after an administration of a radiopharmaceutical, the radioactive-emission-measuring-probe system comprising: a housing for tomographic imaging of the body structure, the housing remaining stationary during data acquisition for a tomographic image; at least one detector assembly system, mounted within the housing, the detector assembly system comprising: a plurality of internal housings each comprises: a plurality of collimated solid-state detecting units, arranged within the internal housing, each of the detecting units defining a solid-state detector pixel- and a solid collection angle, and at least one internal housing motion provider having a motion transfer link configured for providing a rotational motion to one of the plurality of internal housings around a respective rotation axis, during said data acquisition for the tomographic image; and a controller, configured for controlling said detector motion provider; wherein said housing is contoured so as to bring said plurality of collimated solid-state detecting units to a close proximity with the body structure.
