Time-of-flight PET detectors: The next generation

By Tami Freeman, PhD

Detectors for use in time-of-flight PET must offer high detection efficiency, good spatial and energy resolution, and excellent timing resolution, as well as provide depth of interaction information. A promising candidate that meets all of these requirements is the monolithic scintillator detector.
