Abstract	A high resolution BGO block detector has been developed for a positron emission tomography (PET) system. The detector consists of a newly developed compact position-sensitive photomultiplier tube (PS-PMT) and an 8(X)/spl times/4(Y) BGO array of which element size is 2.8 mm/spl times/6.8 mm/spl times/30 mm. The PS-PMT has ten stages of metal channel dynodes and crossed-wire anodes in a 28 mm square/spl times/20 mm high metal package. The performance of the PS-PMT and the block detector was evaluated in terms of applicability to PET. The coincidence timing resolution was 4.4 ns FWHM and 9.5 ns FWTM, and the energy resolution was about 30% for 511 keV /spl gamma/-rays, with the PS-PMTs coupled to single BGO segments. The spatial resolution of the block detector was evaluated by measuring the detector response functions (DRFs) for each BGO segment. The average FWHM values of the DRFs were 3.0 mm in the X direction, and 6.8 mm in the Y direction. Count rate performance of the block detector was measured at different activity levels, when no distinct mispositioning in crystal coding was seen at count rates up to 100 kcps. A compact SD-PET system dedicated to animal studies was designed by adopting the position-sensitive detectors.<>
