ABSTRACT:
The invention provides apparatus for examining bodies by means of penetrating radiation such as X- or .gamma.- radiation. The radiation is directed toward the body in a sectoral-shaped swath and the radiation emergent from the body is collected by detector devices. Each device comprises a scintillator crystal which is arranged to respond to the receipt of the radiation by emitting visible light. The devices are irradiated simultaneously and then interrogated in sequence so that the light emitted by respective ones of the devices, which is in each case indicative of the amount of radiation incident thereon, can be identified as to its origin.
