Crystal design simulation for a high resolution depth encoding pet tomograph

Position Emission Tomography is a functional imaging modality where positron labeled radiotracers are used to investigate biological processes. The imaging process occurs via simultaneous detection of two 511keV gamma rays originating from positron annihilation. A PET camera is a γ detection apparat...
