Asymmetric Data Acquisition System for an endoscopic PET-US detector
Real Time Conference（2016）
Abstract
According to current prognosis studies of pancreatic cancer, survival rate nowadays is still as low as 6% mainly due to late detections. Taking into account the location of the disease within the body and making use of the level of miniaturization in radiation detectors that can be achieved at the present time, EndoTOFPET-US collaboration aims at the development of a multimodal imaging technique for endoscopic pancreas exams that combines the benefits of high resolution metabolic information from Time-Of-Flight (TOF) Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and anatomical information from ultrasound (US). A system with such capabilities calls for an application-specific high-performance Data Acquisition System (DAQ) able to control and readout data from two different detectors.
