A PET detector module with monolithic crystal, single end readout, SiPM array and high depth-of-interaction resolution

Depth of interaction (DOI) technology can improve the spatial resolution of nuclear medicine imaging system which uses scintillation detectors such as Positron Emission Tomography (PET). In this paper, a prototype detector module with DOI capability is established to make complementary characteristic tests on an existing method and to improve the experimental performance using the same method. We investigate the gamma incident surface and...
