In vivo dosimetry in external beam photon radiotherapy: Requirements and future directions for research, development, and clinical practice
External beam radiotherapy with photon beams is a highly accurate treatment modality, but requires extensive quality assurance programs to confirm that radiation therapy will be or was administered appropriately. In vivo dosimetry (IVD) is an essential element of modern radiation therapy because it...
