A radiation detector for detecting radiation and identifying the type thereof includes: a scintillator module formed by stacking a first scintillator emitting light in a first wavelength range by reacting with first radiation and a second scintillator emitting light in a second wavelength range by reacting with second radiation; a first optical filter attached to a region of the scintillator module and transmitting the light in the first wavelength range; a second optical filter attached to another region of the scintillator module and transmitting the light in the second wavelength range; a first photodetector sensing the light in the first wavelength range that has passed through the first optical filter; a second photodetector sensing the light in the second wavelength range that has passed through the second optical filter; and a controller determining radiation on the basis of sensing results by the first photodetector and the second photodetector.

Radiation detector for detecting radiation and identifying type thereof

The present invention relates to a variable pin-hole type collimator applied to a radiation imaging device. The variable pin-hole type collimator comprises: a hole forming module having a plurality of apertures which are stacked in a direction of irradiation such that each aperture defines a penetrating-space through which radiation passes; a plurality of driving modules which are configured that each driving module varies each penetrating-space of the aperture independently; and a collimating controller to control the driving modules such that each penetrating-space of the aperture varies independently and the hole forming module forms a pin-hole through which radiation passes. Therefore, a collimator having various types can be embodied by the variation of the pin-hole shape.
