内容記述 | Abstract: Time-of-flight (TOF) PET improves image quality and quantitative accuracy compared with a conventional PET system. While it is true that TOF works better for larger objects, recent improvement in timing resolution has encouraged application of TOF to brain-dedicated PET systems. Thus, as the second prototype of the helmet-type PET, we have developed a new TOF brain-dedicated PET prototype using detector modules of 12×12 lutetium fine silicate (LFS) crystals (4.1×4.1×10 mm3) connected to a 12×12 (4 mm pitch, 144-ch) MPPC array. In this paper, we investigated another detector module, which has the same outer size but smaller crystals: 16×16 LFS of 3.1×3.1×10 mm3 size coupled to 16×16 (3 mm pitch, 256-ch) MPPC array. The 3-mm 256-ch module showed an energy resolution of 12.0%. For the coincidence response function, the 3-mm module showed a better full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 1.9 mm compared with the 4-mm 144-ch module (2.4 mm). The FWHM was improved by 21%. The coincidence resolving time obtained by the 3-mm 256-ch module was 241 ps. The energy resolution and coincidence resolving time were almost the same between the two modules. The 3-mm 16×16 MPPC-based TOF-PET module can be expected to improve spatial resolution without compromising the energy resolution and coincidence resolving time compared with the 4-mm 12×12 module. |
