NormalizationIndividual detectors responddifferently to the same levelof radioactivity.Normalization produces auniform response to thesame level of radioactivity.
Gamma-ray attenuation proportional to:1) density of object2) pathlength through objectAttenuation CorrectionAttenuation can be corrected with adensity-weighted map of the object.gamma-rayattenuatedrotatingradioactiveline-sourceAttenuation causes a non-uniform loss of events;more gamma rays passing through the middle of the object are lost.
