This contribution highlights the particular impacts on the ATLAS liquid argon calorimeter system, together with an overview of the various upgrade plans leading up to the HL-LHC. The higher luminosities are of particular importance for the forward calorimeters (FCal), where the expected increase in the ionization load poses a number of problems that can degrade the FCal performance such as beam heating and space-charge effects in the liquid argon gaps and high-voltage drop due to increased current drawn over the current-limiting resistors. A proposed FCal replacement as a way to counter some of these problems is weighed against the risks associated with the replacement. To further mitigate the effects of increased pile-up, the installation of a high-granularity timing detector at the front face of each end-cap cryostat is also currently under consideration. Several different sensor technologies and layouts are being investigated.","PeriodicalId":184587,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium, Medical Imaging Conference and Room-Temperature Semiconductor Detector Workshop (NSS/MIC/RTSD)","volume":"29 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120973687","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Simultaneous spatiotemporal tracking of multiple positron sources using spectral clustering 基于谱聚类的多正电子源同步时空跟踪

Pratx","doi":"10.1109/NSSMIC.2016.8069424","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/NSSMIC.2016.8069424","url":null,"abstract":"Tracking point-like objects in optically opaque environments has applications in studying flow in chemical systems, monitoring respiratory motion, and possibly investigating the trafficking of single cell at the whole-body level. One approach is to label the point-like object (particle, fiducial marker, or cell) with positron-emitting tracers. The information contained in the list-mode measurements can be utilized to directly track the motion of a single source, either frame-by-frame or continuously using a trajectory reconstruction algorithm. Applying this concept to multiple simultaneously moving sources is more challenging, in that detected pairs of coincident annihilation photons from different sources are not directly distinguishable. To tackle this problem, we applied spectral clustering methods to cluster the list-mode data into groups of coincidence lines corresponding to distinct sources. With this method, each individual source can then be independently tracked using existing techniques. Advantaged of this method are that the number of clusters can be extracted from the data, and that the method operates directly on the list-mode data, without needing to backproject the CLs into the spatial domain.","PeriodicalId":184587,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium, Medical Imaging Conference and Room-Temperature Semiconductor Detector Workshop (NSS/MIC/RTSD)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127455779","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Composite system modelling for high accuracy brain PET image reconstruction using GATE 基于GATE的高精度脑PET图像重建复合系统建模

{"title":"Composite system modelling for high accuracy brain PET image reconstruction using GATE","authors":"M. Belzunce, A. Reader","doi":"10.1109/NSSMIC.2016.8069558","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/NSSMIC.2016.8069558","url":null,"abstract":"High resolution and good quantification is needed in specific regions of the brain in a number of PET brain imaging applications. An improvement in the spatial resolution and in the quantification of the tracer uptake can be achieved by using statistical reconstruction methods with an accurate model of the scanner acquisition process. This model is represented by a system response matrix and needs to include all the factors that contribute to the degradation of the reconstructed images. Monte Carlo simulations are the best method to model the complex physical processes involved in PET, but they have an extremely high computational cost and the system matrix needs to be recomputed for every new scan. Furthermore, for 3D PET the system matrix can have billions of elements, therefore at present it is impossible to store in memory during the iterative reconstruction. Consequently, on-the-fly Monte Carlo modelling of the system matrix has been previously proposed by other authors, where a Monte Carlo simulation is used in the forward projector and a simpler analytic model in the backprojector. In this work, we propose a different approach, where a composite system matrix is used, with a complete Monte Carlo model computed with GATE for a small subregion of the field of view and a simpler analytic model for the voxels outside that region. We evaluated the feasibility of the method using 2D simulations of a striatum phantom and a brain phantom. For each case, a Monte Carlo system matrix was generated with GATE for a subregion centred in the striatum. The brain simulations were reconstructed using the proposed method and compared with the standard reconstruction used clinically, with and without resolution modelling. For the striatum phantom, the use of a GATE system matrix showed an improvement of the reconstructed image, where a better definition of the structures in the striatum region was observed. For the case of the brain phantom, where the composite system matrix is used, an improvement was also observed but more limited compared with the pure GATE system matrix.","PeriodicalId":184587,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium, Medical Imaging Conference and Room-Temperature Semiconductor Detector Workshop (NSS/MIC/RTSD)","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125557492","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Power pulsing of the CALICE tile hadron calorimeter CALICE瓷砖强子量热计的功率脉冲

{"title":"Power pulsing of the CALICE tile hadron calorimeter","authors":"M. Reinecke","doi":"10.1109/NSSMIC.2016.8069748","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/NSSMIC.2016.8069748","url":null,"abstract":"A large scale prototype of a tile hadron calorimeter (HCAL) for the International Linear Collider (ILC) detector is currently under development. The proposed calorimeter follows the particle flow concept, which requires high granularity and a compact detector design. This is accomplished by using scintillating tiles that are read out by Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) and the integration of the associated front-end electronics into the gaps between the absorber plates. In order to keep the calorimeter structure homogeneous and simple, no active cooling system is allowed for the inner detector. In consequence, the power dissipation of the front-end electronics has to be limited as far as possible with an aim of 25μW per channel. The key component to achieve this is switching off the consumers of the front-end electronics during the gaps in between the ILC bunch trains (power pulsing). In this contribution we show the first results for power pulsing with a full-extension prototype of 2.20m length. Following to a description of the setup, we compare results for the detector performance with and without power pulsing. The challenges of switching huge supply currents of several amperes in 5Hz rate to the front-end electronics and the experiment's power supplies are addressed as well as electromagnetic compatibility aspects.","PeriodicalId":184587,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium, Medical Imaging Conference and Room-Temperature Semiconductor Detector Workshop (NSS/MIC/RTSD)","volume":"15 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116429456","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We propose a component-based Maximum-Likelihood (ML) estimation of normalisation factors for 3D PET data reconstruction applicable to partial ring geometries. This method is based on the Software for Tomographic Image Reconstruction (STIR) for full ring PET and is validated for a stationary partial ring scanner. The model includes the estimation for crystal efficiencies and geometric factors. The algorithm is validated using Maximum Likelihood Estimation Method (MLEM) based 3D reconstruction in STIR using Geant4 Application for Tomographic Emission (GATE) simulation data for full and partial ring scanners and experimental data from a demonstrator with partial ring geometry. The uniformity of the reconstructed images of simulated cylindrical and NEMA-IQ phantoms in both scanner geometries and the image of a line source in the partial ring demonstrator is assessed. The results have shown that uniform images in both axial and transaxial directions are obtained after applying the estimated normalisation factors. The accuracy of the algorithm is validated by comparing the normalisation factors between the full and partial ring systems in simulation. We have shown that the estimated normalisation factors are almost identical, even though the separate components are not. This proves that the ML estimation of the 3D normalisation factors is valid and can be applied to the partial ring scanner.","PeriodicalId":184587,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium, Medical Imaging Conference and Room-Temperature Semiconductor Detector Workshop (NSS/MIC/RTSD)","volume":"95 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123018108","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
