Descrizione

We present the requirements, challenges and possible implementations of the frontend electronics and the data acquisition systems for high-performance PET systems based on silicon photosensors. Two use cases, namely the APD-based breast scanner ClearPEM and the SiPM-based detector of EndoTOFPET-US, are used as illustrations. The application to a large sensitivity whole-body scanner with long axial field-of -view is also discussed.
