Abstract A very high-resolution small animal positron emission tomograph (PET), which can achieve sub-millimeter spatial resolution, is being developed using silicon pad detectors. The prototype PET for a single slice instrument consists of two 1 mm thick silicon pad detectors, each containing a 32×16 array of 1.4×1.4 mm pads readout with four VATAGP3 chips which have 128 channels low-noise self-triggering ASIC in each chip, coincidence units, a source turntable and tungsten slice collimator.

This paper describes the small-diameter monitored drift-tube detector construction at the University of Michigan as a contribution to the ATLAS Muon Spectrometer upgrade for the high-luminosity Large Hadron Collider at CERN. Measurements of the first 30 chambers built at Michigan show that the drift tube wire position accuracy meets the specification of 20 microns. [...]

A High-Resolution PET Demonstrator using a Silicon “Magnifying Glass”
/ Clinthorne, Neal ; Cochran, Eric ; Chesi, Enrico (CERN) ; Grkovski, Milan ; Grošičar, Borut ; Honscheid, Klaus ; Huh, Sam S ; Kagan, Harris ; Lacasta, Carlos ; Brzezinski, Karol et al.
To assist ongoing investigations of the limits of the tradeoff between spatial resolution and noise in PET imaging, several PET instruments based on silicon-pad detectors have been developed. The latest is a segment of a dual-ring device to demonstrate that excellent reconstructed image resolution can be achieved with a scanner that uses highresolution detectors placed close to the object of interest or surrounding a small field-of-view in combination with detectors having modest resolution at larger radius. [...]

On light sharing TOF-PET modules with depth of interaction and 157 ps FWHM coincidence time resolution
/ Pizzichemi, M (CERN) ; Polesel, A (CERN ; Milan Bicocca U.) ; Stringhini, G (CERN ; Milan Bicocca U.) ; Gundacker, S (CERN ; Milan Bicocca U.) ; Lecoq, P (CERN) ; Tavernier, S (LIP, Lisbon ; Vrije U., Brussels) ; Paganoni, M (Milan Bicocca U.) ; Auffray, E (CERN)
The performance of a light sharing and recirculation mechanism that allows the extraction of depth of interaction (DOI) are investigated in this paper, with a particular focus on timing. In parallel, a method to optimize the coincidence time resolution (CTR) of PET detectors by use of the DOI information is proposed and tested. [...]

The upgrade of the ATLAS muon spectrometer for high-luminosity LHC requires new trigger and readout electronics for the various elements of the detector. We present the design of a time-to-digital converter (TDC) ASIC prototype for the ATLAS Monitored Drift Tube (MDT) detector. [...]

A device to measure the effects of strong magnetic fields on the image resolution of PET scanners

Very high resolution images can be achieved in small animal PET systems utilizing solid state silicon pad detectors. As these systems approach sub-millimeter resolutions, the range of the positron is becoming the dominant contribution to image blur. [...]
