More Than 250% Improved Volumetric Resolution
LSO is capable of tremendous light output. This enables very small individual detector crystals to be produced.
The extremely small crystals result in exceptional isometric spatial resolution — an improvement of 250% — without any loss of sensitivity.
In fact, the 4 mm x 4 mm detector configuration delivers the finest PET resolution available at 4.2 mm.
