The energy spectrum characteristic detected as the result of gamma ray photon interaction with a material has an information that can be used to identify the material characteristics. Using a Monte Carlo code of GEANT4, the simulation study has been conducted for 0.662 MeV scattered energy from the acrylic block to investigate the existence of pores in the acrylic block. In order to verify the validity, the simulation result was compared to the measurement data. Both of the simulation prediction and measurement show the similarities of the detected spectrum.
