We are developing a new PET scanner based on the "OpenPET" geometry, which consists of two detector rings separated by a gap. One item to which attention must be paid is that OpenPET image reconstruction is classified into an incomplete inverse pr...

We are developing a novel PET detector with 3D isotropic resolution called a crystal (X'tal) cube. The X'tal cube detector consists of a crystal block all 6 surfaces of which are covered with silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs). We have developed a p...

PET detectors based on light sharing, which can obtain spatial resolution smaller than the photo-detector size with a simple calculation to estimate the center of gravity, have often been studied, but the difficulty in identifying inter-crystal sc...

Several MRI-based attenuation correction methods have been reported for PET/MRI; these methods are expected to make efficient use of high-quality anatomical MRIs and reduce the radiation dose for PET/MRI scanning. The accuracy of the attenuation m...

The OpenPET is our original idea that realizes the world's first open-type 3D PET scanner for PET-image guided particle therapy such as in situ dose verification and direct tumor tracking. Even with a full-ring geometry, the OpenPET has an open ga...
