A scintigraphic probe, of the type used to detect the emission of a radiation and its origin direction in order to identify a radiation source, allows a quick identification of the source and it comprises: a first scintigraphic detecting element, comprising a substantially tubular body (2), said body being hollow and with a proximal opening, divided at least in three longitudinal sectors (5) constituted each one by a scintillation crystal with a respective scintillation or light transmission feature different from the other ones a second scintigraphic detecting element (6) comprising a scintillation crystal internally housed in said tubular body (2) so as to be laterally shielded thereby and having an unschielded surface at said proximal opening (3) and photo-detecting means coupled to the above- mentioned scintillation crystals.
