2D Dose mapping reconstruction
Innovative and userfriendly
FlashDose reconstructs the 2D beam spot from X and Y Strip ionization chamber information.
The single Strips provide with the position and dimension of the beam while the Strips sum give the particle flux information.
In the large area version each Strip detector has a pitch of 2.5 mm which allows an interpolated resolution in the dose map better than 0,3 mm. In the small area version each Strip detector has a pitch of 1 mm which allows an interpolated resolution in the dose map better than 0,1 mm

Come and see the magic!
What’s behind a reliable and performing device? A beating heart and a smart brain.
All our devices are based on proprietary front-end electronics and include embedded software, power supply and control unit for an optimized signal to noise ratio and a more comfortable set up.
Design Made in Italy
Tera Chip
The Detector’s beating heart
Optimized signal to noise ratio
The TERA chip is the core of all our devices.
It guarantess an digitalization of the analog singnals next to the sensor to improve the signal to noise ration.
