Purpose: We characterized the signals obtained from the components of a small gamma camera using Nal(Tl)-position sensitive photomultiplier tube (PSPMT) and optimized the parameters employed in the modules of the system. Materials and Methods: The small gamma camera system consists of a Nal(Tl) crystal ($60{\times}60{\times}6mm^3$) coupled with a Hamamatsu R3941 PSPMT, a resister chain circuit, preamplifiers, nuclear instrument modules (NIMs), an analog to digital converter and a personal computer for control and display. The PSPMT was read out using a resistive charge division circuit which multiplexes the 34 cross wire anode channels into 4 signals (X+, X-, Y+, Y -). Those signals were individually amplified by four preamplifiers and then, shaped and amplified by amplifiers. The signals were discriminated and digitized via triggering signal and used to localize the position of an event by applying the Anger logic. The gamma camera control and image display was performed by a program implemented using a graphic software. Results: The characteristics of signal and the parameters employed in each module of the system were presented. The intrinsic sensitivity of the system was approximately $8{\times}10^3$ counts/sec/${\mu}Ci$. The intrinsic energy resolution of the system was 18% FWHM at 140 keV. The spatial resolution obtained using a line-slit mask and $^{99m}Tc$ point source were, respectively, 2.2 and 2.3 mm FWHM in X and Y directions. Breast phantom containing $2{\sim}7mm$ diameter spheres was successfully imaged with a parallel hole collimator. The image displayed accurate size and activity distribution over the imaging field of view Conclusion: We proposed a simple method for development of a small gamma camera and presented the characteristics of the signals from the system and the optimized parameters used in the modules of the small gamma camera.

This paper describes a normalized numeric image descriptor used to assess the luminance and contrast of the image. The proposed image descriptor used the each pixel data as weighted value of the probability density function (PDF) and defined by normalization in order to objective represent. The proposed image numeric descriptor can be used to the adaptive gamma process because it suggests the objective basis of the gamma value selection.

Measurement of Co-60 gamma rays has been made for establishment of exposure standard and analyze it's overall uncertainties. Exposure rate determined by the charge mode method using vibrating reed amplifier with cylinderical type cavity chamber. The values of a variety of physical constants and the correction factors are evaluated. The resulting exposure rate is 690.81 R/h at the distance of 1m from the source and the related uncertainties is ${\pm}0.8%$

가압중수로(PHWR)형 원자력발전소의 저장수조에 보관중인 사용후핵연료를 대상으로 하는 핵물질 보장조치(safeguards) 이행에 필요한 핵연료다발 수중검증장치를 개발하였다. 본 장치는 CdTe 감마선검출기, 차폐체 및 시준기등으로 구성된 검출부와 이를 지지 및 구동하기 위한 구동부로 구성되어 있다. 검출부에 대하여 감마선 표준선원 및 사용후핵연료 시료를 사용하여 성능시험을 수행한 결과 현장검증시의 요건을 만족하였고, 구동부의 경우 건식조(dry pit)에서 수행한 예비실험 결과 검증목적에 적합하였다. 따라서, PHWR형 원자력발전소인 월성 1 호기의 수중저장조에 있는 사용후CANDU핵연료에 대한 현장성능시험을 현재 준비중에 있으며 그 결과를 바탕으로 하여 국가사찰시에 본 장치를 사용할 예정이며, 향후 IAEA의 공인을 획득하여 IAEA 사찰용 장비로도 활용할 계획이다.
