Abstract	Conventional semiconductor detectors using Silicon and Germanium are used for medical radiation de-tection for long. The Compound semiconductor can be presented with some advantages over the con-ventional semiconductor in various radiation detection applications, including X-ray, gamma-ray, and infrared detection. These materials are valued for their high resistivity, good energy resolution, and the ability to operate at room temperature. The purpose of this paper is to do a comprehensive literature re-view on the recent development on Compound semiconductors as medical radiation detector. Our method of bibliographic search and systematic review made use of Google Scholar, Scopus and Science Direct search engines for the major clinical relevant articles and Medical Physics and JACMP for specific physics articles. Using proper key words, the temporal range 2010–2024 was imposed as a constraint. We also extended our search to include the main guidelines and reports available from IAEA, ASTRO, AAPM and ESTRO.
