Abstract

The response of a Silicon Photomultiplier to a constant illumination has been interpreted in term of Geiger-Mueller avalanche frequency, actually correlated to the photon flux via the photon detection efficiency. The hypothesis has been verified in laboratory tests and applied throughout the development of a device for real-time dosimetry in mammography.
