  1. 48. Improving TOF and DOI capabilities of pixelated PET modules using High-Frequency Readout
    Dr Giulia Terragni (CERN)
    12/05/2026, 09:00

    Low-dose imaging and small-animal positron-emission tomography (PET) require detectors with both high sensitivity and high spatial resolution. In this study, we investigate the performance of high-density scintillators, such as Bismuth Germanate (BGO) and LYSO:Ce, with multi-channel, low-noise, low-power, high-frequency (HF) readout electronics to enhance the Time-of-Flight (TOF) and...

  2. 45. Maximum Likelihood Timing Estimation in Monolithic Scintillators using the PETsys TOFPET2 ASIC

    Introduction: Monolithic scintillators represent a cost-effective alternative to pixelated detector designs in the development of time-of-flight (TOF) PET scanners. However, achieving optimal coincidence time resolution (CTR) in monolithic blocks is limited by the variance in photon arrival times and the complex optical transport across the detector volume. This work evaluates a timing...

  3. 44. Improving Coincidence Time Resolution using Maximum Likelihood Estimation in Dual-Side Readout Scintillators

    12/05/2026, 09:40

    Introduction: High-resolution depth-of-interaction (DOI) and coincidence time resolution (CTR) are critical factors for improving the performance of next-generation Time-of-Flight (TOF) PET scanners. While dual-side readout (DSR) configurations provide DOI information, the precise estimation of the interaction time remains a challenge due to optical transport delays and the stochastic nature...

  4. 3. Benchtop Characterization of a 64-Channel Scintillation Photon Counting TOF-PET Monolithic Detector

    12/05/2026, 10:00

    We characterized the performance of a time-of-flight positron emission tomography (TOF-PET) detector based on our scintillation photon counting technique. The detector consists of a 32.2 × 32.2 × 20 mm3 monolithic Fast LGSO crystal, an 8 × 8 array of Broadcom NUV-MT silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs), and a 64-channel low-noise, high-frequency (LNHF) electronics architecture. This detector...

  5. 60. Cherenkov Photon Counting, Labeling, and Multi-Photon Timing Estimation for sub-100 ps CTR BGO TOF-PET Detectors
    Joshua Cates (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory)
    12/05/2026, 10:20

    We have developed a bismuth germanate (BGO) Cherenkov and Scintillation photon counting time-of-flight positron emission tomography (TOF-PET) detector which can count and provide unique timestamps for detected optical photons. This allows 511 keV photon time of interaction estimators to be derived from the prompt Cherenkov light without influence from scintillation light, which has a much...
