Description

Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a powerful imaging technique that enables the study of physiological and molecular processes in vivo. The introduction of Time-of-Flight PET (TOF-PET) has driven significant improvement on image quality by enhancing signal-to-noise ratio and enabling potential dose reduction. This talk will explore the latest developments in detector technology, signal processing, and system integration that are shaping the next generation of TOF-PET. Additionally, key challenges and future research directions will be discussed.
