High detection efficiency PET scanners BGO Scintillation Crystal
BGO is a relatively hard, rugged, non-hygroscopic crystal which does not cleave. The material does not show any significant self-absorption of the scintillation light.The decay time of BGO is about 300ns at room temperature, which is comparable to that of NaI(Tl).
Due to the high Z value of the material, the photofraction for γ-ray absorption is high; and BGO scintillation crystals are used in applications where a high photofraction is required (for example, PET scanners) or because of its high detection efficiency (for example, Compton suppression spectrometers). It is a combination of properties that make BGO the material of choice for neutron activation analysis.
