Description

The 100µPET project, a SNSF SINERGIA between UNIGE, EPFL and HUG, aims at producing a small-animal PET scanner with unprecedented volumetric spatial resolution by using multi-layer monolithic silicon pixel detectors. 
The scanner will pioneer ultra-high-resolution molecular imaging, a field that is expected to have an enormous impact in medical applications.
The results of the R&D on the monolithic pixel ASIC’s optimization and the simulated scanner performance will be presented
