Abstract
An endocavitary scintigraphic probe, for the detection of a radiation emitted by a radiopharmaceutical, does not requires the presence of wirings and it is therefore provided with a noticeable handiness and comprises a case and a radiation detection system composed by a scintillating crystal coupled with a photomultiplier, wherein inside said case are housed: means for processing the signals of the photomultiplier, converting them in data to be transmitted to a suitable remote processing unit, external to the case; means for the wireless connection between said means for processing the signals and said remote processing unit; means of variable collimation, to modify the width of the measurement cone of the probe; and an autonomous supply system incorporating at least one accumulator.
