Description

Detectors for quality control of equipment or dose delivery are classed into 1D (ionization chambers, diodes and MOSFETs, TLD), 2D (standard films, radiochromic films, matrix diode systems, matrix ionization chamber systems, EPID), and 3D (polymer gels). Each type of detector is discussed in detail. (P.A.)
