| titleOfInvention | Scintillation event localization in a radiation particle detector |
| abstract | A method for scintillation event localization in a radiation particle detector comprises the steps of providing a plurality of scintillator element locations ( 2 ′) configured to emit a burst of photons responsive to a radiation particle being absorbed at the scintillator element location ( 2 ′) and detecting a burst of photons emitted by a scintillator element location ( 2 ′) with a photosensor ( 5 ), wherein the photosensor ( 5 ) comprises an array of single photon avalanche diodes configured to break down responsive to impingement of a photon. Breakdown data ( 30 ) is acquired indicative of which of the single photon avalanche diodes are in breakdown and predetermined photosensor sensitivity data ( 20, 40 ) is provided, which assign single photon avalanche diodes to groups, wherein each group is assigned to exactly one scintillator element location ( 2 ′). Finally the number of single photon avalanche diodes in breakdown is determined for each group individually to identify the scintillator element location ( 2 ′) that emitted the burst of photons. |
