Abstract
An apparatus for recognizing a position of a crystal in a nuclear detector, including: a silicon semiconductor detector array arranged in a crystal array in the nuclear detector, where each row/or column of silicon semiconductor detectors is configured to output a sum of voltages outputted by the silicon semiconductor detectors in the row/or column at a row/or column signal output end; row signal comparing modules, one to one correspondingly connected to each row signal output end and configured to obtain a row comparison result for each row of silicon semiconductor detectors; column signal comparing modules, one to one correspondingly connected to each column signal output end and configured to obtain a column comparison result for each column of silicon semiconductor detectors; and a crystal position recognizing module configured to recognize a position of a crystal hit by a photon according to each row comparison result and each column comparison result.
