Description
ClearPEM is a project to develop a state of the art Positron Emitting Tomograph
dedicated to early breast cancer detection. It is developed by a consortium of
Portuguese research institutions within the framework of the Crystal Clear
Collaboration. The scanner has a modular architecture, where each detector module
features an array of 32 LYSO crystals, with double readout by two pixelated Avalanche
Photo Diode arrays. The first detector modules have been successfully assembled and
tested. In this talk we will present the results of these tests, in terms of Signal
Yield, Photopeak Resolution, Asymmetry and Crosstalk.
