Abstract

Methods and systems for a light sensor for a gamma ray detector of a positron emission tomography (PET) imaging system is provided. The methods and systems include a plurality of micro-cells forming a micro-cell array. The methods and systems include a set of signal traces electrically coupling the plurality of micro-cells to the pin-out. The set of signal traces are configured to define a non-orthogonal signal path from each of the micro-cells to the pin-out.
