Abstract
A method and apparatuses for a radiation detector apparatus, comprising a scintillator array comprising a plurality of scintillator crystals. The plurality of scintillator crystals includes a first scintillator crystal and a second scintillator crystal adjacent to the first scintillator crystal within the scintillator array. A photosensor array comprising a plurality of photosensors including a first photosensor configured to detect photons from the first scintillator crystal. A first separator positioned between the first scintillator crystal and the second scintillator crystal. First separator optically separates the first scintillator crystal and the second scintillator crystal such that the first photosensor detects photons from the first scintillator crystal and not from the second scintillator crystal.
