Abstract
A hybrid imaging apparatus includes a magnetic resonance imaging (MM) arrangement having an RF resonator structure () and a gradient coil system () having a longitudinal axis, an emission tomography (ET) arrangement with a detector device having at least one photosensor () and one circuit board arrangement with at least one readout circuit board () on which an ET electronics is arranged, and an internal shielding device () shielding the readout electronics () of the ET arrangement and shielding the RF resonator structure of the MRI arrangement. The photosensor is arranged, in relation to the longitudinal axis, radially inside the sensor circuit boards and radially outside the RF resonator structure. The internal shielding device is arranged radially outside the photosensor and/or integrated into the photosensor. This achieves both a compact design and optimized performance of the detection of the MR and ET imaging.
