Abstract

The results are given of a numerical modeling of the instrumental functions of integrating encoding systems with multipinhole encoding collimators for recording ionization radiation. The characteristics of the instrumental functions are investigated using collimators with pseudorandom and self-supporting pinhole locations, making it possible to compare the tomographic properties of the collimators and to make an optimal choice.
