LYSO Scintillator Crystal Medical Imaging PET ToF-PET High Energy Physics
Medical imaging PET ToF-PET high energy physics LYSO scitnillator crystal
LYSO(Ce) - Lutetium Yttrium Orthosilicate (Lu₂SiO₅:Ce)is a relatively new scintillator crystal with a high density, high light output, short decay time and good radiation hardness characteristics.
LYSO(Ce) - is a useful scintillator for applications such as:
- Time-of-Flight measurements
- Industrial/Medical CT/XCT
- Positron Emission Tomography (PET)
- Those looking to discriminate between gamma rays and neutrons
- Specialist applications in nuclear and high energy physics
