Abstract
A nuclear medicine diagnostic apparatus is provided that can improve time resolution and energy resolution and diagnosing accuracy by enhancing radiation detectors in terms of moisture-proofing and dust-proofing effects while efficiently cooling the radiation detectors. The apparatus has a first region A in which radiation detectors are to be accommodated, and a second region B in which signal processors are to be accommodated. These regions are provided inside a housing membervia an adiabatic member. The housing memberalso has a ventilation portformed to communicate with the first region A and equipped with an anti-dust filter. Ventilation holesare formed to communicate with the first region B and serving as entrances for cooling air. Unit fansserve as exits for the cooling air.
