Evaluation of Various Scintillator Materials in Radiation Detector Design for Positron Emission Tomography (PET)

The performance of radiation detectors used in positron-emission tomography (PET) is determined by the intrinsic properties of the scintillators, the geometry and surface treatment of the scintillator crystals and the electrical and optical characteristics of the photosensors. Experimental studies w...
