Ortho-positronium Lifetime For Soft-tissue Classification
Ashish V. Avachat, Kholod H. Mahmoud, Anthony G. Leja +4
The objective of this work is to showcase the ortho-positronium lifetime as a probe for soft-tissue characterization. We employed positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy to exp…
Deep-learning Segmentation of Small Volumes in CT images for Radiotherapy Treatment Planning
Jianxin Zhou, Kadishe Fejza, Massimiliano Salvatori +3
Our understanding of organs at risk is progressing to include physical small tissues such as coronary arteries and the radiosensitivities of many small organs and tissues are high.…
Enabling pulse shape discrimination with commercial ASICs
John Leland, Ming Fang, Satwik Pani +3
Fast electronic readout for high-channel density scintillator-based systems is needed for radiation tracking and imaging in a wide range of applications, including nuclear physics,…
Statistical modelling and Bayesian inversion for a Compton imaging system: application to radioactive source localisation
Cecilia Tarpau, Ming Fang, Konstantinos C. Zygalakis +3
This paper presents a statistical forward model for a Compton imaging system, called Compton imager. This system, under development at the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign,…
Feasibility of Neutron Coincidence Counting for Spent Fuel
Ming Fang, Angela Di Fulvio
High-temperature gas reactors rely on TRIstructural-ISOtropic (TRISO) fuel for enhanced fission product retention. Accurate fuel characterization would improve monitoring of effici…
Generalized Method for the Optimization of Pulse Shape Discrimination Parameters
Jianxin Zhou, Abdullah Abdulaziz, Yoann Altmann +1
Organic scintillators exhibit fast timing, high detection efficiency for fast neutrons and pulse shape discrimination (PSD) capability. PSD is essential in mixed radiation fields,…
