Innovative dosimeter characterized
by isotrope behaviour
What?
QCheck is an innovative dosimeter for radiation therapy based on Yb-doped optical fiber and single photon counting avalanche photodiode.
Where?
QCheck is conceived for small field dosimetry QA procedures in water phantoms and it affects the radiation field with minimum beam perturbation.
When?
QCheck is designed to be used during quality assurance measurements to characterize the radiation field prior to patient treatments.
Innovative dosimeter characterized by isotrope behaviour
Who?
QCheck is aimed at medical physicists looking for an innovative dosimeter characterized by isotrope behaviour, linear dose response, dose rate and energy independence.
How?
QCheck offers a kit of Yb-doped optic fibers of different length, core diameter and customizable active area working in the IR region.
Why?
QCheck avoids the STEM effect and overcomes the limitations of the state of art devices working in the visible region. It includes dedicated software and it can also be interfaced to standard electrometers for real-time acquisition.
