Dosimetric Application of Phosphorus Doped Fibre for X-ray and Proton Therapy

Dosimetric Application of Phosphorus Doped Fibre for X-ray and Proton Therapy

Phosphorous-doped silica optical fibres with a core diameter of 4 µm were tested in X-ray and proton fields for application in cancer therapy dosimetry. Specifically, the radiation-induced attenuation was investigated in terms of linearity in deposited dose in 15 MV and 6 MV photons and 74 MeV proto...
