The device is based on silicon photomultipliers coupled with a scintillator and wirelessly compensated for supply voltage and temperature variations. The probe is positron sensitive.A Compact Probe for Beta+Emitting Radiotracer Detection in Suregery, Biopsy, and Medical Diagnostics based on Silicon Photomultiplierstext::conference output::conference proceedings::conference paper
