    Background
    Depth-of-interaction (DOI) is one of the remaining challenges for high resolution PET. The resolution degradation stems from incorrect LOR endpoint estimation when photons impinge on the detector at oblique angles. This problem increases with distance from the symmetry axis, and poses a challenge for LAFOV PET, where more LOR are acquired at oblique angles. Terapet SA...

    Backgrounds and Aims
    Total-body (TB) PET systems have significantly increased system sensitivity compared with conventional whole-body PET scanners. However, currently available clinical TB-PET systems are based on pixelated crystals without depth-of-interaction (DOI) capability, which may limit spatial resolution homogeneity at large radial offsets due to parallax errors. We present the...

    Total-body positron emission tomography (PET) has attracted increasing attention due to its potential for significantly improved sensitivity and whole-body dynamic imaging compared with conventional PET systems. In this work, we develop a depth-of-interaction (DOI)-enabled total-body PET system with a 200 cm axial field of view (AFOV). The system employs LYSO crystal arrays with a crystal size...

    Background: IMAS is a long axial field-of-view (LAFOV) positron emission tomography (PET) system with time-of-flight (TOF) and depth-of-interaction (DOI) capabilities. This study aims to develop and demonstrate a practical quality control (QC) method to monitor the stability and reproducibility of DOI correction in the IMAS.

    Methods: System stability was assessed using both...
