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.

Silicon as an unconventional detector in positron emission tomography
/ Clinthorne, Neal (Michigan U.) ; Brzezinski, Karol (Valencia U., IFIC) ; Chesi, Enrico (CERN) ; Cochran, Eric (Ohio State U.) ; Grkovski, Milan (Stefan Inst., Ljubljana) ; Grosicar, Borut (Stefan Inst., Ljubljana) ; Honscheid, Klaus (Ohio State U.) ; Huh, Sam (Michigan U.) ; Kagan, Harris (Ohio State U.) ; Lacasta, Carlos (Valencia U., IFIC) et al.
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a widely used technique in medical imaging and in studying small animal models of human disease. In the conventional approach, the 511keV annihilation photons emitted from a patient or small animal are detected by a ring of scintillators such as LYSO read out by arrays of photodetectors. [...]

Silicon detectors for the sLHC
/ Affolder, A (Liverpool U.) ; Aleev, A (Moscow, ITEP) ; Allport, P P (Liverpool U.) ; Andricek, L (Munich, Max Planck Inst.) ; Artuso, M (Syracuse U.) ; Balbuena, J P (Barcelona, Inst. Microelectron.) ; Barabash, L (Kiev, INR) ; Barber, T (Freiburg U.) ; Barcz, A (Inst. Electron Tech., Warsaw ; Warsaw, Inst. Phys. Chem.) ; Bassignana, D (Barcelona, Inst. Microelectron.) et al.
In current particle physics experiments, silicon strip detectors are widely used as part of the inner tracking layers. A foreseeable large-scale application for such detectors consists of the luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the super-LHC or sLHC, where silicon detectors with extreme radiation hardness are required.
