Claim Text:
1. A microfabricated scintillation detector, comprising a channel structure for containing a liquid scintillator material therein and flowing said liquid scintillator material therethrough, said channel structure comprising a first set of adjacent channel portions arranged in a first layer and in fluid communication with each other, and a second set of adjacent channel portions arranged in a second layer and in fluid communication with each other, said second set of adjacent channel portions being directed transversely with respect to the first set of adjacent channel portions, wherein said first and second layers are stacked on top of each other with a separation layer in between, said separation layer integrally connecting said first and second layers, wherein the channel structure simultaneously forms a light guiding structure for guiding scintillation light generated upon interaction of radiation with said liquid scintillator material in said adjacent channel portions towards a longitudinal end of the corresponding channel portion, said scintillation detector further comprising a plurality of photo detectors, arranged to receive said scintillation light.
