There is a need for high-precision detection timing in a radiological imaging apparatus using a semiconductor detector so as to decrease time variations against a noise and easily correct process variations. A radiation detection circuit includes: a semiconductor detector; charge accumulation means connected to the semiconductor detector; a circuit to discriminate timing of a signal generated from the charge accumulation means based on a specified threshold value; a shaper 1 to limit a band from the charge accumulation means using a first time constant; a shaper 2 to limit a band from the charge accumulation means using a second time constant; a circuit 1 to hold an analog peak value 1 for the shaper 1; and a circuit 2 to hold an analog peak value 2 for the shaper 2. The radiation detection circuit performs a signal process to generate timing correction data based on the analog peak values 1 and 2 and correct timing data from the timing discriminator circuit.
