Feasibility studies for imaging ee annihilation with modular multi-strip detectors
S. Sharma, L. Povolo, S. Mariazzi +41
Studies based on imaging the annihilation of the electron (e) and its antiparticle positron (e) open up several interesting applications in nuclear medicine and fundame…
Synchronisation and calibration of the 24-modules J-PET prototype with 300~mm axial field of view
P. Moskal, T. Bednarski, Sz. Niedzwiecki +36
Research conducted in the framework of the J-PET project aims to develop a cost-effective total-body positron emission tomography scanner. As a first step on the way to construct a…
Feasibility studies of the polarization of photons beyond the optical wavelength regime with the J-PET detector
P. Moskal, N. Krawczyk, B. C. Hiesmayr +31
J-PET is a detector optimized for registration of photons from the electron-positron annihilation via plastic scintillators where photons interact predominantly via Compton scatter…
Estimating the NEMA characteristics of the J-PET tomograph using the GATE package
Paweł Kowalski, Wojciech Wiślicki, Roman Shopa +30
The novel whole-body PET system based on plastic scintillators is developed by the {J-PET} Collaboration. It consists of plastic scintillator strips arranged axially in the form of…
Plastic scintillators for positron emission tomography obtained by the bulk polymerization method
Łukasz Kapłon, Andrzej Kochanowski, Marcin Molenda +24
This paper describes three methods regarding the production of plastic scintillators. One method appears to be suitable for the manufacturing of plastic scintillator, revealing pro…
Multiple scattering and accidental coincidences in the J-PET detector simulated using GATE package
P. Kowalski, P. Moskal, W. Wiślicki +28
Novel Positron Emission Tomography system, based on plastic scintillators, is developed by the J-PET collaboration. In order to optimize geometrical configuration of built device,…
Hit time and hit position reconstruction in the J-PET detector based on a library of averaged model signals
P. Moskal, N. G. Sharma, M. Silarski +28
In this article we present a novel method of hit time and hit position reconstruction in long scintillator detectors. We take advantage of the fact that for this kind of detectors…
GPU accelerated image reconstruction in a two-strip J-PET tomograph
P. Białas, J. Kowal, A. Strzelecki +26
We present a fast GPU implementation of the image reconstruction routine, for a novel two strip PET detector that relies solely on the time of flight measurements.
A pilot study of the novel J-PET plastic scintillator with 2-(4-styrylphenyl)benzoxazole as a wavelength shifter
A. Wieczorek, P. Moskal, Sz. Niedźwiecki +30
For the first time a molecule of 2-(4-styrylphenyl)benzoxazole containing benzoxazole and stilbene groups is applied as a scintillator dopant acting as a wavelength shifter. In thi…
Novel method for hit-position reconstruction using voltage signals in plastic scintillators and its application to Positron Emission Tomography
L. Raczynski, P. Moskal, P. Kowalski +26
Currently inorganic scintillator detectors are used in all commercial Time of Flight Positron Emission Tomograph (TOF-PET) devices. The J-PET collaboration investigates a possibili…
