摘　　要：The service provided by the GC(Gamma Cameras)in the Nuclear Medicine departments fails because of their breakdown,generally due to the associated electronics and not to the physical detection components.For this reason,it was decided to develop an electronic system that allows the recovery and optimization of disused GC,starting with the design of the preamplifier for a PMT(photomultiplier tube).The circuit was designed and simulated and the list of components necessary for the construction of the preamplifier was generated,as well as the printed circuit board was designed for its assembly.By simulating the preamplifier this worked in linear mode.This determines that the amplitude of the output signal is proportional to the amount of charge delivered by the detector.This card allows an automatic adjustment of the signals of the PMT as do the modern GC.
