The majority of photons that the scanner detects are not in coincidence with another photon

The location of the annihilation is on the line between the detectors that sensed the photons in temporal coincidence
![Page 25: Raymond F. Muzic, Jr., Ph.D. - AAPM Chapter](https://reader031.vdocuments.pub/reader031/viewer/2022012414/616df84c69848a23502c4414/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

By random chance two annihilations occur nearly simultaneously
Scanner detects one photon from each mispositioned coincidence
Keep activity “low” to minimize probability of random coincidence
Estimate and statistically correct using delayed coincidence window
