A radiation detector comprises an energy/electricity converter having a detection
area for detecting incident radiation, and electrodes connecting the converter
to an external driving circuit for driving the converter to convert energy of the
incident radiation detected by the detection area of the converter into an electric
signal. A collimator is integrally connected to the converter and has an opening
for transmitting radiation to irradiate the detection area of the converter and
portions for preventing radiation from irradiating a part of the converter other
than the detection area. A spacer is integrally connected to the collimator and
the converter for maintaining a preselected distance between the collimator and
the detection area of the converter.
