Dosimeters detect and measure the cumulative ionizing radiation they see over time. Geiger counters detect the real-time flux of ionizing radiation at a specific location, and scintillators detect individual, real-time ionizing events and usually are constructed in a way to quantify variations in the ionizing energy.
Usually, dosimeters are placed on or near an at-risk individual for a length of time to measure their total exposure, while Geiger counters are used by rad-techs to determine how safe an experiment is or if a dangerous event is occurring. Scintillators are used almost exclusively by experimentalists to collect and sort data at high resolution.
