✦ Synopsis

Electronics and data acquisition systems are important components of radiation detectors applied to medical imaging. The performance of these systems has strong implications on crucial parameters of imaging devices, like the sensitivity and the image background noise. The paper presents a review of the functionality, typical architectures and main components of the electronics and data acquisition systems in medical imaging.
