re-SPECT: Towards a new family of nuclear imaging gamma detectors

re-SPECT: Towards a new family of nuclear imaging gamma detectors

Principal Investigator: Michela Marafini (CREF)

CREF Researcher: Marco Garbini

Partner: Sapienza Università di Roma, Università di Trento

Code: 2022Z72Y3K

The reSPECT project opens the way to a new family of gamma imaging detectors based on plastic scintillators combined with 3D printed collimators and an integrated readout system. This allows for significant cost reduction while achieving beyond state-of-the-art resolution and count-rate capability. The breakthrough is based on materials, 3D printing, and sensing innovations.
