| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A method for measuring dose rates in and around a three-dimensional shape using an organic semiconductor radiation detector was investigated. The detectors were placed in each layer of a layered head phantom, and X-ray irradiation experiments were conducted. The current generated by the detectors agreed well with the distribution measured by an ionization chamber type dose rate meter. The proposed device has the potential to measure dose rate distributions inside and outside the human body.
In addition, the possibility of direct measurement with organic semiconductor devices was investigated to evaluate their applicability to heavy particle radiation measurement. Detectors were fabricated using various organic materials, irradiated with heavy particle beams, and the output charge was measured. 4HCB in particular showed the best characteristics. Bragg peaks were also observed, indicating the possibility of applying this detector to the measurement of heavy particle beams.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
生体の構成材料に近い組成からなる有機半導体放射線検出器をフレキシブル基板に実装し、X線透過像撮影において低い負荷効果のままで、立体的な形状を持つ物体の内外における線量率分布を測定することが可能となった。Interventional Radiography（IVR）等の際に患者、医療従事者の被ばく量を抑制しつつ、高度な医療を実現することが本検出器の開発により実現された。高齢化社会を迎えて医療の高度化が求められる中で非常に重要な成果ということができる。
