3314 Introduction: The standard commercial positron emission tomography (PET) detector
uses pixelated scintillation crystals that provide an average spatial resolution of 4-5 mm. The …

In most high-resolution PET detector designs, there is an inherent trade-off between spatial
resolution and detector efficiency. We have developed and tested a new geometry for the …

INTRODUCTION State-of-the-art clinical positron emission tomography (PET) scanners
utilize detector blocks consisting of many pixelated scintillation crystals. First systems in the …

Clinical and organ-dedicated PET systems typically require a high efficiency imposing the
use of thick scintillators, normally through crystal arrays. To provide depth of interaction …

The use of monolithic scintillator-based photon detectors in positron emission tomography
(PET) has emerged as an attractive alternative to traditional pixelated array designs …

We propose to improve spatial resolution, light collection, and depth of interaction
capabilities of monolithic PET detectors by using corner reflectors machined directly into the …

Positron emission tomography (PET) is a technique for imaging the 3-dimensional
distribution of radio-labelled molecules in vivo. This technique plays an increasingly …

Background Preclinical research and organ‐dedicated applications use and require high
(spatial‐) resolution positron emission tomography (PET) detectors to visualize small …

We developed positron emission tomography (PET) detectors based on monolithic
scintillation crystals and position-sensitive light sensors. Intrinsic depth-of-interaction (DOI) …

We present a framework based on Geant4 to evaluate the performance ofdifferent monolithic
positron emission tomography (PET) detector stacksetups based on a LYSO: Ce crystal with …
