Abstract
A panel radiation detector is provided for detecting radiation event(s) of ionizing radiation, comprising a plurality of adjoining plastic scintillator slabs, a plurality of silicon photomultiplier sensors arranged at an edge of at least one of the plastic scintillator slabs) and configured to detect scintillation light generated in the scintillator slabs responsive to the radiation events, and a plurality of signal processing units each connected to one of the silicon photomultiplier sensors, wherein the signal processing units each comprise a digitization circuit configured to generate a digitized signal for signal analysis by executing 1-bit digitization of a detection signal generated by at least one of the silicon photomultiplier sensors responsive to the detected scintillation light for determining the energy of the detected radiation event(s).
