A solid state image pickup device (31) in which a plurality of picture elements are arranged in two dimensions to pick up the image of the distribution in two-dimensional space of radiative ray, light beams, electrons, ions, etc., and which is characterized by an opening (34) piercing a substrate (33b) being provided at the roughly center of an image pickup part (33) where the picture elements are arranged, and a charge transfer path to connect charge transfer electrodes (33d) to read out the image of each picture element with one another being wired, avoiding the opening (34). Furthermore, the image pickup part (33) is divided into at least two regions with the boundary between them lying partially in the opening (34), and each region has an exclusive register for charge readout. Hereby, this image pickup device doubles as an image pickup device to pick up the two-dimensional distribution of radiative ray, etc. and an aperture to this radiation.
