    Abstract: The invention provides a switchable photomultiplier switchable between a detecting state and a non-detecting state including a cathode upon which incident radiation is arranged to impinge. The photomultiplier also includes a series of dynodes arranged to amplify a current created at the cathode upon detection of photoradiation. The invention also provides a detection system arranged to detect radiation-emitting material in an object. The system includes a detector switchable between a detecting state in which the detector is arranged to detect radiation and a non-detecting state in which the detector is arranged to not detect radiation. The system further includes a controller arranged to control switching of the detector between the states such that the detector is switched to the non-detecting state while an external radiation source is irradiating the object.

    Abstract: An electron-optical image tube including a photocathode, an extraction electrode consisting of a mesh on the emission side of the photocathode, and a focussing electrode on the side of the mesh remote from the photocathode, achieves increased time resolution, improved spatial resolution, and reduced magnification at a phosphor screen by making the photocathode to mesh spacing small compared with the mesh to focussing electrode spacing. An improved photocathode plate avoids large electric fields at sharp points on the photocathode surface. Additional annular electrodes and flared deflector electrodes in the drift section of the tube prevent scattering of electrons from the tube walls on to the screen.
