Abstract

A radiation detector for a PET-MR apparatus, has a fastening-strength and a high cooling efficiency relative to a photoelectric conversion element. A holding memberholds a side-periphery and a bottom of a light detectorby a connection element, and is strongly fastened by a connection baseand a gimlet holeand a screw. A light shielding filmis a thin-film and adheres and covers an outer-periphery and the side-periphery of the holding member. The radiation detector has a robust fastening-strength, so that a locational shift of the scintillator blockis prevented. As a result, the radiation detector can detect γ-ray data accurately.
