titleOfInvention | Gradient index scintillator for improved resolution |
abstract | A Positron Emission Tomography (PET) device, detector for a PET device and method of performing PET. The detector includes a scintillator and a photodetector. The scintillator includes a crystal defining a receiving axis and having a receiving face for receiving a gamma ray. A dopant concentration of the crystal varies along the receiving axis with a distance from the receiving face. The photodetector is configured to generate an impulse response in response to an interaction between the gamma ray and the crystal. A decay profile of the impulse response is related to a local dopant concentration of the crystal at the location of the interaction and the distance of the interaction from the receiving face. |
