Depth of interaction in monolithic scintillators for positron emission tomography

The parallax error introduced by incorrectly assigning the lines-of-response defined by the annihilation photon pairs, limits the attainable spatial resolution in positron emission imaging. Knowledge of the exact position of interaction (x, y, z) inside the scintillation crystal, including the depth...
