This review describes the roles of detectors in various medical imaging techniques and highlights the state of the art of detectors used in different systems. New technologies applied to detectors are emphasized in the discussion of each imaging modality.
In this review, the roles of detectors in various medical imaging techniques were described. Ultrasound, optical (near-infrared spectroscopy and optical coherence tomography) and thermal imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, single-photon emission tomography, positron emission tomography were the imaging modalities considered. For each methodology, the state of the art of detectors mainly used in the systems was described, emphasizing new technologies applied.
