background
● Early detection of a carcinomatous lesion
● Inaccuracy of depth of interaction (DOI) of gamma rays within the scintillator
● Non-uniformity of PET image at the edge of vision
● Low-cost and compact PET detector is strongly awaited
summary
● Resolution improvement for the PET scaner
● 3D measurement of incident gamma rays
● Novel optical sensor of the magnetic field resistant
predominance
● Novel simple DOI method using MPPCs
● Achieving submillimeter resolution in 3D measurements of incident gamma rays
● Very easy to fabricate, resolution better than e.g., X’tal Cube
application/development
● High Resolution PET scanner
● Next generation PET, MRI/PET, TOF/PET
● Small environmental gamma camera
