Description
Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy (SABR) is a standout amongst the chosen radiation therapy practices for early stage bronchogenic carcinomas. Procedures stretched to other treatment locales like Spine, Scapula and Sternum, and so on. Pre-treatment verification confirms the patient got the planning dose. Distinctive class of dosimeters or dose-measuring devices have been employed for pre-treatment check that incorporates ionization chamber, diode, TLD, 2D Array etc. SABR employed small fields which order the utilization of scale down detectors for pre-treatment confirmation. Alanine and nanoDots are new class of dosimeters that should be typified for pre-treatment verification. It was the aim of the present study to investigate the influence quality (e.g. energy, dose rate, directional dependency, etc.) of alanine, nanoDots dosimeters and compare with TLD100H and explore the feasibility of using these dosimeters for pre-treatment verification of the dose delivered to patients undertaking stereotactic ablative radiotherapy
