A comprehensive view of various techniques involved in detection of gamma rays, obtained from literatures has been presented. It also discusses with the current research activities carried out at various fronts, provides information about wide range of dosimeter available for detection of gamma rays. The dose range of each dosimeter is reviewed along with merits and demerits of various dosimeter techniques. Different types of sensing materials and their characteristics are discussed, with relative merits and demerits. The development of various types of optical fibres and their working principles are analyzed. The advantages of fibre Bragg grating over other fibres are also presented
