Conclusions and future work
• A tomographic SPECT system for online dose measurements in BNCT have been designed
• The whole system has been simulated by means of MonteCarlo calculations
• Sinograms from numerical phantoms have been simulated and used for image reconstruction
• Statistical fluctuations must be kept under 3-5%• The influence of the image reconstruction algorithm on
quantitative concentration measurements will be studied• The experimental setup is under characterization and
images will be acquired in the near future
