摘要:
In order to overcome or at least mitigate difficulties in compensating for movement of the target, for example a tumour during radiotherapy, a dosimetry apparatus and method embodying the present invention employ a dosimeter having at least one radiation detector and at least one magnetic position sensor located a predetermined distance apart. Radiation level readings from the radiation detector and position readings from the position sensor are monitored and correlated, conveniently according to time, to obtain the position of the radiation detector when a particular radiation level was detected.
