Concept for Gamma Imaging Modules for SPECT and PET using Silicon Photomultipliers
This
concept is for the implementation of high-performance compact gamma-imaging
modules based on the so-called silicon photomultiplier (or avalanche photodiode)
technology, which can be used as components of single gamma, SPECT or PET
imagers for preclinical and clinical applications, but also in other
applications requiring radiation imaging...

Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Optical Tissue Sample Imager
This
is a proposal for a mobile compact imaging system located in the operating room
(OR) to provide faster feedback to determine if a cancerous tumor has been
resected and if there are adequate surgical margins. The device can reduce the
total time necessary for the procedure and the number of iterations required to
achieve satisfactory resection...
