ABSTRACT:
A position-sensitive radiation detector has a plate-like scintillator and a photomultiplier tube array that are connected each other. At least one of scintillator surfaces of a radiation incidence-side and a connection-side to the photomuliplier tube array is provided with plural grooves. This structure enables the detection of the depth of a scintillation point in the scintillator and the detection of the scintillation point in horizontal direction with high resolution.
