Abstract：
The effect of the crystal's type and treatment on the performance of gamma camera consisting of planar crystal and position sensitive photomulitiplier tube (PSPMT) is studied via experiment. The results demonstrate that: (1) treatment of the edge surface of the crystal is very sensitive to the shrinkage of image, and the side-absorptionsurface is the best choice; (2) the intrinsic spatial resolution of the CsI (T1) crystal camera is worse due to its low light yield: in the center part it is - 1cm (FWHM) for 2mm aperture collirnated 241Am source; while using NaI(T1) crystal, it is -4mm.
