  • Patent number: 11681054
    Abstract: A position-signal processing method for flat panel gamma imaging probe includes a modeling phase and a use phase. In the modeling phase, a weight direction for an imaging detector is defined, position centers and weight ratios of the imaging detector in the weight direction are utilized to obtain a distribution graph of the weight ratios to the position centers, and curve fitting is performed upon the distribution graph to obtain a position estimation curve. In the use phase, the position estimation curve is utilized to derive a position estimation value of a probe trigger event in a 2D crystal diagram, a position value of the probe in the 2D crystal diagram with respect to the position estimation value of the probe trigger event is obtained, and a crystal code is located in a crystal code look-up table for the position value of the probe in the 2D crystal diagram.
