Abstract
According to an embodiment, a measuring device includes a plurality of scintillators, plurality of receiving elements, and a processor. The scintillators each convert incident radiation into light. The receiving elements each convert scintillation light received by a light receiving surface thereof into an electric signal. The processor acquires a value corresponding to an intensity of the incident radiation based on the electric signal. Each of the scintillators includes an incident surface on which the radiation is incident. The incident surface includes an inclination that has a predetermined angle with respect to the light receiving surface and that is asymmetric with respect to a center of the incident surface. The scintillators are arrayed on a plane including the light receiving surface.
