An overview of Monte Carlo as a practical method for designing and analyzing radiation detectors is provided. The emphasis is on detectors for radiation that is either directly or indirectly ionizing. This overview paper reviews some of the fundamental aspects of Monte Carlo, briefly addresses simulation of radiation transport by the Monte Carlo method, discusses the differences between direct and inverse detection problems, and illustrates how various Monte Carlo methods can be used in design and analysis of radiation detectors.
