Abstract
A wiring substrate sectionis provided between a radiation detecting sectionwhich is formed of a scintillatorand a PD arrayand signal processing elementsandfor processing a detected signal outputted from the PD arrayand the wiring substrate sectionhas a wiring substratewhich is formed of a glass material having a radiation shielding function and in which a conductive memberserving as a conduction path for guiding the detected signal therethrough is provided in a through hole. Relative to the through holeof the wiring substratethe signal processing elementsandof the signal processing sectionlocated downstream of the wiring substrateare each disposed in an area excluding those areas on the extension of the through holes, and this allows the signal processing elementsandnot to be seen through the through holes. This arrangement realizes a radiation detector which suppresses radiation made incident on the signal processing means located downstream of the wiring substrate.
