Abstract
In radiotherapy, the development of bidimensional detectors with the suitable dosimetric features for pretreatment quality assurance of the new advanced treatment techniques is of interest. Diamond is a valid candidate as real-time dosimeter since, contrary to silicon, it is an almost tissue equivalent material showing in principle no energy dependence. Furthermore, it is possible to product large-area polycrystalline diamond wafers with suitable electronic properties. In this study we describe the performance of DIAPIX, a large area dosimeter used for pretreatment verification of intensity modulated treatment plans.
