A Large Area Pixelated Silicon Array Detector for Independent Transit In Vivo Dosimetry

Applied Sciences, 2022
A large area pixelated silicon array detector named “MP987” has been developed for in vivo dosimetry. The detector was developed to overcome the non-water equivalent response of EPID (Electronic Portal Imaging Device) dosimetry systems, due to the ...
