Investigating Silicon Photomultipliers for Use in a Gamma Camera
Abstract
We have investigated the use of a tileable $4 {\times}4$ array of SiPM pixels coupled with a CsI(TI) crystal for use in a gamma camera. We have performed simulations of a number of geometries using both pixelated and monolithic scintillation crystals. Event positioning algorithms were also investigated as an alternative to conventional Anger logic positioning. Simulations have shown that by using multi-channel parallel electronics, we can …
