Almost all PET scanners consist of an annular arrangement of multiple scintillation detectors to build an entire ring surrounding the object to be imaged. The scintillation detector, which is the most essential building block of most PET scanners, consists of two key components: the scintillator and the photodetector. Dedicated data acquisition electronics convert charges from the scintillation detectors to digital signals, analyses them, sorts, and then stores them for image reconstruction. This chapter introduces the most important components and building blocks of common PET systems and discusses their performance, their limitations and their underlying physical principles. Further relevant methods for obtaining spatial and temporal information from scintillation detector signals are also briefly discussed. The chapter concludes by presenting the general concepts of typical PET system designs, the most important PET performance parameters and an overview of several representative existing systems. 000858925 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-573$$a573 - Neuroimaging (POF3-573)$$cPOF3-573$$fPOF III$$x0 000858925 588__ $$aDataset connected to CrossRef Book Series 000858925 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)131667$$aPietrzyk, U.$$b1 000858925 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)165812$$aLenz, M.$$b2 000858925 773__ $$a10.1039/9781788013062-00147 000858925 7870_ $$0FZJ-2018-02194$$aShah, N Jon$$dCambridge : Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018$$iRelatedTo$$r$$tHybrid MR-PET Imaging: Systems, Methods and Applications 000858925 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/858925/files/9781788013062-00147.pdf$$yRestricted 000858925 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/858925/files/9781788013062-00147.pdf?subformat=pdfa$$xpdfa$$yRestricted 000858925 909CO $$ooai:juser.fz-juelich.de:858925$$pVDB 000858925 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)164254$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b0$$kFZJ 000858925 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)131667$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b1$$kFZJ 000858925 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)165812$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b2$$kFZJ 000858925 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-573$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF3-570$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF3-500$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF3$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$aDE-HGF$$bKey Technologies$$lDecoding the Human Brain$$vNeuroimaging$$x0 000858925 9141_ $$y2018 000858925 9201_ $$0I:(DE-Juel1)INM-4-20090406$$kINM-4$$lPhysik der Medizinischen Bildgebung$$x0 000858925 9201_ $$0I:(DE-Juel1)INM-11-20170113$$kINM-11$$lJara-Institut Quantum Information$$x1 000858925 9201_ $$0I:(DE-82)080010_20140620$$kJARA-BRAIN$$lJARA-BRAIN$$x2 000858925 980__ $$acontb 000858925 980__ $$aVDB 000858925 980__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)INM-4-20090406 000858925 980__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)INM-11-20170113 000858925 980__ $$aI:(DE-82)080010_20140620 000858925 980__ $$aUNRESTRICTED
