A method is discussed for locating the stopping position of pi - mesons in tissue. The gamma -rays emitted following the capture process are collimated and converted to electrons. They are detected with a plastic scintillator and their position is determined with a magnetostrictive wire spark chamber. The sensitivity and resolution of the system are measured.
