Initial results of simultaneous PET/MRI experiments with an MRI-compatible silicon photomultiplier PET scanner

HS Yoon, GB Ko, SI Kwon, CM Lee, M Ito… - Journal of Nuclear …, 2012 - Soc Nuclear Med
The most investigated semiconductor photosensor for MRI-compatible PET detectors is the
avalanche photodiode (APD). However, the silicon photomultiplier (SiPM), also called the …

Ultrafast timing enables reconstruction-free positron emission imaging

SI Kwon, R Ota, E Berg, F Hashimoto, K Nakajima… - Nature …, 2021 - nature.com
X-ray and gamma-ray photons are widely used for imaging but require a mathematical
reconstruction step, known as tomography, to produce cross-sectional images from the measured …

Dual-phase tapped-delay-line time-to-digital converter with on-the-fly calibration implemented in 40 nm FPGA

JY Won, SI Kwon, HS Yoon, GB Ko… - IEEE transactions on …, 2015 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
This paper describes two novel time-to-digital converter (TDC) architectures. The first is a
dual-phase tapped-delay-line (TDL) TDC architecture that allows us to minimize the clock skew …

Bismuth germanate coupled to near ultraviolet silicon photomultipliers for time-of-flight PET

SI Kwon, A Gola, A Ferri, C Piemonte… - Physics in Medicine & …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
Bismuth germanate (BGO) was a very attractive scintillator in early-generation positron emission
tomography (PET) scanners. However, the major disadvantages of BGO are lower light …

Development of small-animal PET prototype using silicon photomultiplier (SiPM): initial results of phantom and animal imaging studies

SI Kwon, JS Lee, HS Yoon, M Ito, GB Ko… - Journal of Nuclear …, 2011 - Soc Nuclear Med
Silicon photomultiplier (SiPM; also called a Geiger-mode avalanche photodiode) is a
promising semiconductor photosensor in PET and PET/MRI because it is intrinsically MRI-…

A four-layer DOI detector with a relative offset for use in an animal PET system

M Ito, JS Lee, SI Kwon, GS Lee, B Hong… - … on Nuclear Science, 2010 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
For animal PET systems to achieve high sensitivity without adversely affecting spatial
resolution, they must have the ability to measure depth-of-interaction (DOI). In this paper, we …

[HTML][HTML] Chitin nanocrystals: A promising alternative to synthetic surfactants for stabilizing oil-in-water emulsions

…, JH Lee, N Al-mahbashi, MB Alameen, S Kwon… - Case Studies in …, 2023 - Elsevier
Oil-in-water emulsions are used in a variety of applications, but they are often unstable and
can break down over time due to different mechanisms such as flocculation and coalescence…

On timing-optimized SiPMs for Cherenkov detection to boost low cost time-of-flight PET

…, S Merzi, M Penna, V Schulz, SI Kwon - Physics in Medicine …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
Objective. Recent SiPM developments and improved front-end electronics have opened new
doors in TOF-PET with a focus on prompt photon detection. For instance, the relatively high …

[HTML][HTML] Comparative study on supervised learning models for productivity forecasting of shale reservoirs based on a data-driven approach

D Han, J Jung, S Kwon - Applied Sciences, 2020 - mdpi.com
Due to the rapid development of shale gas, a system has been established that can utilize a
considerable amount of data using the database system. As a result, many studies using …
