Simulations of whole-body low-dose time-of-flight positron emission tomography (TOF-PET) based on the direct surface production [1] by 511 keV gamma rays of energetic electrons via the Photo-electric and Compton Effects, eliminating the scintillator and photodetector sub-systems in PET scanners.
Using TOPAS to create a simulation of a new TOF-PET Scanner based on a low atomic number scintillator.
Using a TOPAS simulation to model the direct conversion of 511 keV gamma rays to electrons in a micro-channel plate (MCP).
A Talk given by Allison Squires on Compton Scattering in liquid media for TOF-PET under lower doses, TOPAS simulations of the Derenzo, XCAT brain phantoms are included.
Paper submitted to Transactions On Medical Imaging: TOPAS simulations of switchillator based PET using Derenzo and XCAT brain phantoms.
Talk given at the 2022 APS march meeting N10, Chicago, IL.
Micro-channel-plate-based photo-detectors are unique in being capable of covering areas of many square-meters while providing sub-millimeter space resolution, time resolutions of less than 10 picoseconds for charged particles, time resolutions of 30-50 psec for single photons. Incorporating a capacitively-coupled anode...
