Abstract
Abstract
New detector approaches in Positron Emission Tomography
imaging will play an important role in reducing costs, lowering
administered radiation doses, and improving overall
performance. PETALO employs liquid xenon as the active scintillating
medium and UV-sensitive silicon photomultipliers for scintillation
readout. The scintillation time in liquid xenon is fast enough to
register time-of-flight information for each detected coincidence,
and sufficient scintillation is produced with low enough
fluctuations to obtain good energy resolution. The present
simulation study examines a full-body-sized PETALO detector and
evaluates its potential performance in PET image reconstruction.
