The dominant powder scintillator in most medical imaging modalities for decades is Gd2O2S:Tb due to the very good intrinsic properties and overall efficiency. Except for Gd2O2S:Tb there are alternative powder phosphor scintillators like Lu2SiO5:Ce and Gd2O2S:Eu that has been suggested for use in var...
