M. Watanabe,K. Shimizu,Tomohide Omura,M. Takahashi,Tsuyoshi Kosugi,Etsuji Yoshikawa,Nakahiro Sato,Hiroyuki Okada,T. Yamashita +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, a high-resolution positron emission tomography (PET) scanner dedicated to brain studies has been developed and its physical performance was evaluated, which consists of a new compact position-sensitive photomultiplier tube (PS-PMT, Hamamatsu R7600-C12) and an 8/spl times/4 bismuth germanate (BGO) array.
Journal ArticleDOI
A high-throughput whole-body PET scanner using flat panel PS-PMTs
M. Watanabe,K. Shimizu,Tomohide Omura,Nakahiro Sato,M. Takahashi,Tsuyoshi Kosugi,K. Ote,A. Katabe,R. Yamada,T. Yamashita,Eiichi Tanaka +10 more
TL;DR: A new positron emission tomography scanner for whole-body studies has been developed that uses coarse septa placed between the block detector rings, which are effective to reduce scattered coincidence events while keeping a high detection sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of a Small Animal PET Scanner Using DOI Detectors
R. Yamada,M. Watanabe,Tomohide Omura,Nakahiro Sato,K. Shimizu,M. Takahashi,Kibo Ote,A. Katabe,Takahiro Moriya,K. Sakai,T. Yamashita,Eiichi Tanaka +11 more
TL;DR: A small animal PET scanner using 256-channel PS-PMTs has been designed, constructed, and evaluated and the applicable imaging capability of the scanner was demonstrated by animal studies with a rat.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Data correction and normalization for a new PET scanner having coarse septa
K. Ote,M. Takahashi,Tsuyoshi Kosugi,R. Yamada,M. Watanabe,T. Yamashita,T. Hasegawa,Eiichi Tanaka +7 more
TL;DR: Data correction and normalization methods for the PET scanner have been developed, which include a new scatter correction method utilizing measured scatter event data, component-based normalization for the detector sensitivity and segmentation attenuation correction using X-ray CT scanner data.
