摘要: A combined PET/MRI scanner generally includes a magnet for producing magnetic field suitable resonance imaging, radiofrequency (RF) coil disposed within the produced by and ring tomograph magnet. The scintillator layer outputting at least one photon in response to an annihilation event, detection array coupled detecting outputted signal detected front-end electronic receiving signal, wherein has preamplifier shaper network conditioning signal.
