Towards a time-of-flight positron emission tomography system based on Multi-Pixel Photon Counter read-out

We present the first commissioning data of our TOF-PET test device featuring MPPC read-out of small size LFS crystals. We discuss the characteristics of the test device and present results from two different multi-channel read-out ASIC chips which offer a high timing performance.
