Summary A technique suitable for mappingπ ± stopping density distributions in patients or phantoms is described. As a position sensitive detector a multiwire proportional chamber with a slit or a hole collimator in front was applied. Results using a water and a Rando phantom are presented for various momenta and momentum band widths of theπ ± beam. To our knowledge the two-dimensional visualization of aπ − stopping density distribution was realized for the first time.
