Title:
RADIATION MEASUREMENT DEVICE AND RADIATION MEASUREMENT METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2021/166295
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided are a radiation measurement device and a radiation measurement method that make it possible to acquire the internal state of a to-be-inspected subject at high resolution with respect to an internal direction, and to implement high-level analysis and monitoring. A radiation measurement device (100) comprising: a single-color photon source (101) that controls the emission direction of single-color photons or quasi-single-color photons; a radiation detector (102) that detects Compton scattering photons that have scattered from a to-be-inspected subject (106), the relative coordinates of the radiation detector (102) relative to the single-color photon source (101) being known; an energy measurement device (103) that measures the energy and intensity of the detected Compton scattering photons; a depth computation device (104) that, on the basis of the relative coordinates and the energy and intensity of the Compton scattering photons, computes the intensity distribution for the Compton scattering photons in the depth direction of the to-be-inspected subject (106); and a display device (105) that displays the result of computation.
