Development of a linear array for intracavitary in vivo dosimetry during external beam radiotherapy and brachytherapy. [PDF]
We present the details of a new linear array dosimeter consisting of a chain of semiconductors mounted on an ultra-thin (50 μm thick) flexible substrate and housed in an intracavitary catheter. The semiconductors, manufactured by NMRC Cork, have not been
