摘要
Free-radical, alanine/EPR dosimetry can be applied to measure beam doses and cumulative doses delivered to the target volume in proton beam radiotherapy, as a supplementary part of the Quality Assurance program of the proton ocular radiotherapy procedure at the Institute of Nuclear Physics (IFJ PAN). Development of suitable characteristics of the alanine dosimeter and the principle of application of this detector in proton beam radiotherapy are described.
