Abstract
The present invention relates to an apparatus for determining the location of a radiation source. The apparatus for determining the location of a radiation source according to the present invention comprises: a collimator part for selectively passing radiation therethrough according to the direction in which the radiation is incident; a scintillator part for converting the radiation incident from the collimator part into a light ray; a first optical sensor for converting the light ray incident from one end of the scintillator part into a first optical signal; a second optical sensor for converting the light ray incident from the other end of the scintillator part into a second optical signal; and a location information acquisition part for acquiring information on the location where the light ray is generated in the scintillator part, by using the second optical signal and the second optical signal.
