A method for using high density fusible Rose's metal with high precision machining in small animal imaging applications

摘要

We present a method for producing flexible and high precision solutions applicable to detector shielding and pinhole apertures using a fusible metal called Rose's metal. Custom Rose's metal parts have been manufactured to both shield detectors as well as incorporate platinum pinholes in a small animal imaging system based on BazookaSPECT technology dubbed InSPECT.
