Patent attributes
Provided are a collimator, a radiation detection device, and a radiation inspection device that are capable of further removing scattered radiation. This collimator 20 comprises: a radiation blocking section 22; and a radiation transmission section 21 that has a lower radiation blocking rate than the radiation blocking section 22, penetrates the radiation blocking section 22, and is solid. The X-ray transmission section 21 of the collimator 20 is solid therefore X-rays on the low-energy side that have been scattered by a subject B in the X-ray transmission section 21 are absorbed, as a result of this collimator 20. Accordingly, there is little noise contained in X-rays detected by a radiation detection element 30 and a high-resolution X-ray image can be obtained.
