Evaluation of the timing characteristics of various PET detectors using a time alignment probe
Time alignment is performed on a conventional PET scanner in order to reduce the noise in the image from undesirable interactions, called randoms. In time of flight scanners this alignment is even more critical in order to place the position of an annihilation accurately. Traditionally, the alignm...
