High dose rate radiation therapy systems and dosimetry

Abstract

Disclosed is a system for quality assurance of high dose rate radiation therapy. The system includes a radiation delivery system configured to deliver high dose rate radiation therapy, with the radiation delivery system including a radiation source and a collimating system. The system also includes a radiation detection system having a diode to measure high dose rate radiation from the radiation source, an operational amplifier to transform the output of the diode to a measurable voltage, and a voltage source configured to apply a reverse bias to a component of the radiation detection system.
