  • Detector and emission tomography device with the detector
    Patent number: 11262463
    Abstract: The present invention provides a detector and an emission tomography device including the detector. The detector comprises: a scintillation crystal array comprising a plurality of scintillation crystals; and a photo sensor array, coupled to an end surface of the scintillation crystal array and comprising multiple photo sensors. At least one of the multiple photo sensors is coupled to a plurality of the scintillation crystals respectively. Surfaces of the plurality of the scintillation crystals not coupled to the photo sensor array are each provided with a light-reflecting layer, and a light-transmitting window is disposed in the light-reflecting layer on a surface among the surfaces adjacent to a scintillation crystal coupled to an adjacent photo sensor. The detector has DOI decoding capability. No mutual interference occurs during DOI decoding, and decoding is more accurate.
