Yuemeng Feng, Lisa Blackberg, Arkadiusz Sitek +1
Objective. This study investigates the best achievable performance of a brain-dedicated PET system with high resolution and sensitivity by evaluating different detector configurati…
Maximum-Likelihood--Based Position Decoding of Laser Processed Converging Pixel CsI: Tl Detectors for High-Resolution SPECT
Xi Zhang, Arkadiusz Sitek, Lisa Blackberg +3
This study demonstrates the feasibility of a novel fabrication technique for high spatial resolution CsI: Tl scintillation detectors tailored for single photon emission computed to…
A layered single-side readout DOI TOF-PET detector
L. Bläckberg, S. Sajedi, G. El Fakhri +1
We are exploring a scintillator-based detector with potential of high sensitivity, DOI capability and timing resolution in a single-side readout configuration. Our concept combines…
Simulation study of light transport in laser-processed LYSO:Ce detectors with single-side readout
Lisa Bläckberg, Georges El Fakhri, Hamid Sabet
A tightly focused pulsed laser can locally modify the crystal structure inside the bulk of a scintillator. The result is incorporation of so-called optical barriers with a refracti…
