Abstract
The dose measurement device includes: a radiation sensor constituted by a light emitting portion that is made of a polycrystalline scintillator and emits light of intensity dependent on an amount of incident radiation and a cover covering the light emitting portion; an optical fiber that is connected to the radiation sensor and transmits the photons emitted by the polycrystalline scintillator; a photoelectric converter for converting the photons transmitted by the optical fiber into electrical signals; a calculation device for measuring each of the electrical signals through the conversion by the photoelectric converter of each photon, calculating a count rate, and specifying a dose rate; and a display device for displaying measurement results calculated by the calculation device.
