Description

We present an early-stage prototype of positron emission tomograph (PET) based on 3x3x20 mm GAGG(Ce) scintillators optically coupled to 3x3 mm SiPMs (Onsemi fc30035-smt). The detectors are read by a Weeroc 32-channel Petiroc2A chip, allowing for precise charge and time measurements and designed specifically for SiPMs readout.
In the report, the energy and time resolutions of the system measured with Ti-44 source are presented, the imaging capabilities of the system are discussed.
