Photon, electron and proton radiations are used extensively for medical purposes in
diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Dosimetry of these radiation sources can be …

This topical review provides an up-to-date overview of the theoretical and practical aspects
of therapeutic kilovoltage x-ray beam dosimetry. Kilovoltage x-ray beams have the property …

The introduction of advanced techniques and technology in radiotherapy has greatly
improved our ability to deliver highly conformal tumor doses while minimizing the dose to …

Background With radiotherapy having entered the era of image guidance, or image‐guided
radiation therapy (IGRT), imaging procedures are routinely performed for patient positioning …

This article presents an overview of the recent developments and requirements in
radiotherapy dosimetry, with particular emphasis on the development of optical fibre …

Abstract Stereotactic Synchrotron Radiotherapy (SSRT) and Microbeam Radiation Therapy
(MRT) are both novel approaches to treat brain tumor and potentially other tumors using …

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the energy dependence of the response of two new
high sensitivity models of radiochromic films EBT and XR‐QA. We determined the dose …

Radiation therapy became more and more sophisticated in terms of radiation oncology
modalities, type of radiation used and method of delivery that is leading to very conformal …

Purpose An accurate assessment of out‐of‐field dose is necessary to estimate the risk of
second cancer after radiotherapy and the damage to the organs at risk surrounding the …

A critical early phase for any synchrotron beamline involves detailed testing,
characterization and commissioning; this is especially true of a beamline as ambitious and …
