Three-Photon Bayesian Imaging of Ortho-Positronium
L. Raczynski, W. Krzemien, A. Coussat +5
PET provides functional images relying on two-photon coincidences from positron-electron annihilation. In human tissue, about 40\% of annihilations are preceded by Ps formation, of…
A systematic evaluation of machine learning classifiers for event-by-event background rejection in LAFOV PET scanners
Konrad Klimaszewski, Michał Obara, Mateusz Bala +5
The introduction of LAFOV PET scanners brings significant sensitivity gains but also a substantial increase in the background rate from accidental coincidences, phantom-scattered a…
Ortho-Positronium Three-Photon Decays: Physics Constraints and a Closed-Form Energy Method for Annihilation Vertex Reconstruction
L. Raczyński, W. Krzemień, A. Coussat +5
We examine the physical foundations of orthopositronium three-photon decay in the context of annihilation vertex reconstruction, focusing on how energy-momentum conservation constr…
A Monte Carlo positronium decay source model with multiple annihilation channels in GATE
Wojciech Krzemien, Mateusz Bala, Kamil Dulski +7
Positronium-based imaging requires realistic modelling of positronium (Ps) decay in matter. We introduce a modular Ps decay model implemented in GATE 9.4 and GATE 10, enabling the…
