Parameters T1, T2, and K required by a scintillator array identification mechanism in a two-stage scintillator γ-ray detector (depth of interaction (DOI)) are accurately and easily determined. The parameters required by the scintillator array identification mechanism are determined with reference to a first signal count ratio, which is obtained by irradiating a γ-ray on each scintillator array with luminescence pulses in an incident depth direction of the γ-ray having different attenuation time during an inspection stage of the γ-ray detector single unit. Furthermore, a second signal count ratio is obtained by irradiating the γ-ray on a front surface of the γ-ray detector single unit, and then a third signal count ratio is obtained by irradiating the γ-ray on the front surface after the γ-ray detector single unit is installed in a PET device.
