Development of a novel depth of interaction PET detector using highly multiplexed G-APD cross-strip encoding

Purpose: The aim of this study was to develop a prototype PET detector module for a combined small animal positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI) system. The most important factor for small animal imaging applications is the detection sensitivity of the PET camera, whic...
