Abstract: In case of performing so-called “PET acquisition”, a nuclear medical diagnosis apparatus according to the present invention does not set only gamma rays which imparted predetermined energy values (for example, energy values of and above a Compton edge), as subjects for coincidental counting acquisition (coincidence acquisition), but it discriminates also further gamma rays which caused a photoelectric effect after having undergone Compton scattering once in a radiation detection unit, so as to set them as subjects for the coincidental counting acquisition. Concretely, if the added value of energy values observed in two detection elements is “near 511 keV”, the existence of the further gamma ray is presumed, and the acquisition thereof is possible. Besides, that one of the two detection elements as to which energy near the Compton edge is observed can be specified as the incident position of the gamma ray on the radiation detection unit.
