Problem
Modern radiotherapy techniques, such as adaptive radiotherapy, small field dosimetry, and FLASH radiotherapy, require fast, accurate, and non-perturbing dosimetry solutions. Existing dose detectors may interfere with ionizing radiation, leading to inaccurate measurements, especially in modalities using electron and photon MV.
Solution
Medscint provides a new generation of dosimetry solutions based on plastic scintillation detectors (PSD) technology for real-time radiation dose measurement. Their HYPERSCINT™ solutions use water-equivalent plastic scintillator material that does not interfere with ionizing radiation during energy deposition. This allows for accurate dose measurements in dynamic radiation delivery procedures, including motion/gated applications, small fields, and multi-met E2E testing. The hyperspectral approach enables dose measurement from a single point or multiple points simultaneously, providing a refined spatial distribution of measurements. The HS-RP100 is designed for FLASH radiotherapy, measuring dose-per-pulse, average dose-rate, and integrated dose.
