Comparison of gamma (Anger) camera systems in terms of detective quantum efficiency using Monte Carlo simulation.

• The aim of the present study was to perform an extensive evaluation of available gamma camera systems in terms of their detective quantum efficiency (DQE) and determine their dependency on relevant parameters such as collimator type, imaging depth, and energy window using the Monte Carlo technique.
