Abstract: An innovative liquid xenon Compton camera project, XEMIS (XEnon Medical Imaging System) has been proposed by SUBATECH laboratory, for a new functional medical 3γ imaging technique based on the detection in coincidence of 3 γ-rays. The purpose of this 3γ imaging modality is to obtain a 3D image using 100 times less activity than in current PET systems. The combination of a liquid xenon time projection chamber (LXe TPC) and a specific (β+, γ) radionuclide emitter 44Sc is investigated in this concept. In order to provide an experimental demon...
