Abstract
Gamma ray cameras can easily locate radiation hotspots where decontamination is required. Among them, the Compton camera that utilizes the Compton scattering is compact and lightweight because no radiation shielding is required. We have developed a Compton camera for quick visualization of the radioactive contamination. It features high detection efficiency by utilizing gamma ray detectors which is a combination of Multi-Pixel Photon Counter (MPPC) array and Gadolinium Aluminum Gallium Garnet (GAGG) scintillator arrays.
