Description

A further investigation of the nuclear scattering of 500 to 1000 MeV protons is described. Three-dimensional information on the density distribution within carbon, CH and H20 phantoms was obtained with a volume resolution of 2 mm3. The separation of scattering on hydrogen from that on heavier nuclei, such as carbon and oxygen, was demonstrated, providing the statistics were sufficient. Some preliminary measurements on animals are reported, but with a volume resolution limited by statistics to 43 mm3. (author)
