Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To avoid strong attenuation of a positron emission tomograph (PET)radiation. SOLUTION: As a support tube 7 for a transmission antenna, a sandwich structure 8, 9, 10 which attenuates the PET radiation only very slightly, is used. The sandwich structure comprises a thin rigid inner wall 8 of the support tube 7, a likewise thin and rigid outer wall 9 and an interior of the support tube formed of a honeycomb type or a foam material.
