The invention relates to a photoelectric converter, a detector and scanning equipment. The photoelectric converter comprises a silicon photomultiplier array and a light guide coupled with the silicon photomultiplier array, wherein the silicon photomultiplier array comprises i*j silicon photomultipliers spliced on a horizontal plane, and the i and the j are both integers greater than or equal to 2. The detector comprises a scintillation crystal, an electronic system, a light guide and silicon photomultipliers. The scanning equipment comprises a detection device and a frame, wherein the detection device comprises the detector, and the detector comprises the photoelectric converter. According to the photoelectric converter, the detector and the scanning equipment, a photoelectric conversion scheme of the photoelectric silicon photomultipliers is mainly employed, the silicon photomultipliers have small volumes and are closely arranged, the silicon photomultipliers in proper dimensions and in proper quantity are matched with the light guide in proper shape, a PET detector with high spatial resolution can be established, so the spatial resolution of the whole PET system can be improved, the PET detector having DOI and TOF performances is proper to establish, application to PET/MRI can be realized, and low cost is further realized.
