[Gate-users] simulation of internal 176Lu background of LYSO crystals in PET system

[Marcin Balcerzyk]

Hi Gaters.

 

I would like to simulate internal background of 176Lu in a PET system with
LYSO crystals (5%Y). I vaguely remember in the user guide, that source and
CrystalSD cannot overlap in space, but now I cannot find this statement. Is
it so? If yes is there any trick to do such a thing? I use fairly large
(good few ccm) crystals, so placing a point source in between pixelated
crystals is not an option.

 

Regards
