Abstract

Systems and methods include generation of a source optical signal outside of a radiofrequency-shielded cabin based on a reference electrical clock signal, transmission of the source optical signal into the radiofrequency-shielded cabin via optical media, generation of an electrical clock signal based on the source optical signal within the radiofrequency-shielded cabin, jitter cleaning of the electrical clock signal within the radiofrequency-shielded cabin to generate a jitter-cleaned electrical clock signal based on an average frequency of the electrical clock signal and a jitter of a magnetically-compatible jitter cleaner oscillator, and transmission of the jitter-cleaned electrical clock signal to a plurality of positron emission tomography scanner detectors disposed within the radiofrequency-shielded cabin.
