Concerning the sensitivity of gamma cameras (system sensitivity): a. It is a function of both intrinsic and collimator efficiency b. At high keV, the intrinsic sensitivity is almost 100% c. Using a thicker crystal increases sensitivity d. It is measured using a bar test e. It is expressed as total counts per second per mega becquerel of activity (cps MBq-1 )

Answer»

a. True. 

b. False. Below 100 keV, the intrinsic sensitivity is almost 100%, above which it depends on the thickness of the crystal. 

c. True. Using a thicker crystal improves sensitivity but reduces spatial resolution. 

d. False. Sensitivity is measured using a known amount of activity in a small source. 

e. True.
