Annotation	The development of positron emission mammography (PEM) to detect the breast cancer at the early stage with high efficiency is demanding. The recently developed Pr:LuAG has almost twice as short scintillation decay time than that of Ce:LSO, so that the Pr:LuAG scintillator was employed in our recently developed PEM system.
