Describes some physical factors that affect the measurement process of single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) based on scintillation cameras. Using a rotating camera SPECT system the r.m.s. noise level in attenuation-corrected images of a uniform cylindrical source was found to agree with theoretical predictions. The volumes of plastic spherical sources within a cylindrical volume were computed, and agreed with measured values. SPECT measured radionuclide concentrations over the large 0.01-1.0 μC; ml-1, but compensations for system spatial resolution and scattered gamma photons were required when comparing values for differently shaped sources
