Abstract
A scintillation camera comprises a camera body for detecting a .gamma.-ray emitted from radioisotope provided to a human body to be examined in a predetermined period of time, means for measuring an incident position of the .gamma.-ray and its density based on the detection result of the camera body, and means for generating a density distribution of the .gamma.-ray for every incident position based on the measurement result of the measuring means, thereby obtaining the density distribution of the .gamma.-ray for every incident position.
