The PET scanner consists of 4 planar detectors, forming a rectangular system with complete azimuthal angular sampling (around the z-axis). The panels are formed of detector blocks each using a 20x20 array of LYSO scintillation crystals (2x2x10mm3) coupled to a 12x12 array of 3x3 mm2 pixel silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs). The overall system size is 24cm wide (6 blocks) by 16cm deep (4 blocks axially) by 4-to-12cm adjustable height.
The PET system mounts on a mammography scanner by swapping out the standard 'bucky' unit. Patients are scanned in both mammography and PET modes without movement to allow co-registration of the two image sets. Here, we review the system design, construction, and initial performance measures.
