Design Study of a Whole-Body PET Scanner with Improved Spatial and Timing Resolution

Current state-of-art whole-body PET scanners achieve a system spatial resolution of 4-5 mm with limited sensitivity. Since the reconstructed spatial resolution and image quality are limited by the count statistics, there has not been a significant push for developing higher resolution whole-body PET...
