Abstract :
We have designed and developed a mobile PET probe using a 16ch CdTe detector. A PET endoscope system is constructed with the mobile probe, 144-channel LuAG APD PET detector and an optical position tracking system for the validation study of multi-modal system. The image is successfully reconstructed by integrating the position information and timing information.
