N1 - We present a preliminary study on proton calorimetry for pCT (proton computed tomography) system. In a pCT scanner there are a tracking system for proton-path reconstruction and a calorimeter for measurement of residual proton energy. We set up a prototype system using a silicon tracker and a scintillator crystal .
