The Center for Proton Therapy (CPT) of the Paul Scherrer Institute has a long history of technical innovation and development in the field of proton therapy and related quality assurance (QA). The second proton pencil beam scanning gantry built at the CPT, Gantry2, is a state-of-the-art system. The unique integration of QA equipment and detectors within the control system of the gantry allows...

We report on an innovative liquid xenon Compton camera project, XEMIS (XEnon Medical Imaging System), for a new functional medical imaging technique based on the detection in coincidence of 3 $\gamma$-rays. The purpose of this 3$\gamma$ imaging modality is to obtain a 3D image using 100 times less activity than in current PET systems. The combination of a liquid xenon time projection chamber...

Tomographic methods for the imaging and visualization of complex structures are widely used not only in medical applications but also for scientific use in numerous fields.
The CT-Imaging technique, which is commonly used for imaging in industry and the medical sector, exploits the difference of attenuation length for photons in different materials. Complete absorption of the photon beam for...

The TT-PET collaboration is developing a new generation of fast, low noise and low power-consumption monolithic silicon detector in SiGe Bi-CMOS technology.
The target of this R&D is to produce a 100µm thick monolithic detector, with a time resolution better than 100ps for minimum ionizing particles, 1mm^2 readout pads and a time digitization at 20ps level. This performance will be achieved...

Petiroc2A is a 32-channel ASIC designed conjointly by Omega laboratory and Weeroc company. It is aimed for SiPM read-out for time-of-flight application prototyping. It is a complete read-out ASIC embedding a fast trigger line with a 10GHz gain-bandwidth product and a precise energy measurement based on a shaper. Following the very front-end chain, a time-to-amplitude converter allows to...
