Czech scientists participated in the seminar held at the Institute of Radiation Problems

A seminar was held with the participation of Czech scientists at the Institute of Radiation Problems of the Ministry of Science and Education of the Republic of Azerbaijan and the Nuclear Research Department of the Innovation and Digital Development Agency.

In the seminars where the new detector module for Magnetic Resonance Tomography/Positron Emission Tomography was discussed, it was brought to attention that some measurements were made, such as examining the shape of the signal received directly from the MAPD array with LaBr, NaI, LSO, and a plastic scintillator. These results will be used in the development of a new detector module for Magnetic Resonance Tomography/Positron Emission Tomography.
