Abstract: | In radiotherapy practice, 1D and 2D dosimeters are used for dose verification prior to patient treatment. Along with high accuracy and precision of dose measurements that these dosimeters provide, acquisition of dose deposition data in three dimensions requires extrapolation of measured data. Development of a 3D dosimeter would provide continuous information of dose distribution in matter. In this work, NaCl 3D crystal has shown that radiation deposition can be imaged using blue laser stimulation in two dimensions. It was further shown that the intensity of collected signal has near – linear dose dependence, however complete signal readout is required, to compensate for gradual signal collection at different depths along the profile of the stimulating laser beam, due to attenuation of the beam within the crystal. A method to extend dose measurement to three dimensions using imaging is proposed. |
