User:Damato does a nice job of explaining the simultaneous detection of the pairs of photons that the process relies on. It might be better to have a larger version and with numbered labels for the benefit of Commons users, but it is still rather good as it is.
Object until the image description page has a less technical explanation. As of yet the image is pretty, but not really as informative as I hoped it to be. -

With the higher resolution, a new issue arises. What is the copyright status of the components of the image, specifically the Sun workstation and processing unit/mainframe-type thing? Even if the author created the 3D model from scratch, Sun could claim copyright / design patents for the design. There is also the issue of the Sun logo/trademark. Even if we were sure Sun would not go after us for using their trademark, there is the question of whether we should promote a certain brand in a supposedly neutral/informative image. —

I've fixed the links in the image description so they point to WP rather than commons. I will also support this larger version, I think it's very attractive and informative.

Of course, I do support this diagram myself as I have put additional time into it after those comments to make it look more pretty and consistent for a featured picture.

A good illustration for the article, and as a diagram it is nice, but the balance in the layout is a little awkward, so it's not stunningly good. And, that wrinkled patient looks really sick... Sorry, have to oppose. --
