Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to devices, systems and methods for determining a position of a photon gamma interaction in a PET detector. The PET detector may include a crystal array and a single-end read-out structure. The single-end read-out structure may include a photon-sensor array optically coupled with the crystal array. The crystal array may include a plurality of crystal elements arranged along a first direction and a second direction. The crystal elements may form a plurality of crystal groups along the first direction. The PET detector may further include a plurality of optical separators of the same or different lengths configured to control light transmission in the PET detector. The position of the photon gamma interaction in a crystal group may be determined based on output information of the photon-sensor array optically coupled with the crystal group.

Claim (Index 8):
The PET detector of  claim 1 , wherein:\n at least one of the first optical separator or second optical separator extends, along the third direction, from the first end of at least one of two neighboring crystal elements between which the at least one of the first or second optical separator is located.
