Abstract: The apparatus has an energy calculation section 32 that calculates energy deposit values of interactions based on signals obtained from segmented electrodes 11, 12 provided on two opposite surfaces of a semiconductor crystal, a reference waveform storing section 33 that stores beforehand waveforms that will be obtained from the segmented electrodes when a single interaction occurs for multiple positions in the crystal, a waveform synthesis section 34 that synthesizes reference waveforms corresponding to arbitrary two points in the crystal as candidate points of interaction at a ratio equal to a ratio of their energy deposit values, and a comparison section 35 that compares a measured waveform and the synthesized waveforms. The candidate points from which the synthesized waveform most similar to the measured waveform is obtained is determined to be the positions of interactions. Thus, even in cases where multiple interactions occur, the positions of the interactions can be detected.

Abstract: A pancreatic endocrine cell indicating agent of the present invention includes a modified polypeptide in which a metal chelator binds only to an amino acid that is located at a site other than a somatostatin receptor-binding active site in a polypeptide selected from the group consisting of somatostatin and somatostatin analogs; and a radioactive metal nuclide held by the metal chelator. According to the present invention, it is therefore possible to provide a novel pancreatic endocrine cell indicating agent.
