Positron emission tomography schematic diagram.
Positron emission tomography schematic diagram.

The Positron emission tomography is surprisingly well illustrated, and this diagram by User:Damato does a nice job of explaining the simultaneous detection of the pairs of photons that the process relies on. It might be better to have a larger version and with numbered labels for the benefit of Commons users, but it is still rather good as it is.

  • Nominate and support. - Solipsist 08:22, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Object until the image description page has a less technical explanation. As of yet the image is pretty, but not really as informative as I hoped it to be. - Mgm|(talk) 10:38, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
    • Not supposed to vote yet!--Deglr6328 18:51, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
  • I think this is a very nice depiction of PET but is FAR too small to become featured. --Deglr6328 18:51, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Agreed. Any change we could get a bigger one? Enochlau 10:12, 16 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Also agreed... its quite nice but not good or big enough just yet for featured IMO. -Lanoitarus 19:09, 16 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Support if available with a higher resolution or a vector format and with a more informative description. For now, oppose. — — David Remahl 19:52, 16 November 2005 (UTC)
    • With the higher resolution, a new issue arises. What is the copyright status of the components of the image, specifically the Sun workstation and processing unit/mainframe-type thing? Even if the author created the 3D model from scratch, Sun could claim copyright / design patents for the design. There is also the issue of the Sun logo/trademark. Even if we were sure Sun would not go after us for using their trademark, there is the question of whether we should promote a certain brand in a supposedly neutral/informative image. — David Remahl 13:46, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
  • I've fixed the links in the image description so they point to WP rather than commons. I will also support this larger version, I think it's very attractive and informative. Raven4x4x 05:40, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Support. Not a bad diagram. Enochlau 02:23, 19 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Of course, I do support this diagram myself as I have put additional time into it after those comments to make it look more pretty and consistent for a featured picture. Damato 08:30, 23 November 2005 (UTC)
  • ( − ) Oppose Maybe a small thing, but I don't like the rendering of the patient. --Fir0002 08:31, 27 November 2005 (UTC)
  • A good illustration for the article, and as a diagram it is nice, but the balance in the layout is a little awkward, so it's not stunningly good. And, that wrinkled patient looks really sick... Sorry, have to oppose. --Janke | Talk 13:59, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
