| abstract |
A radiation therapy system including a linear accelerator configured to emit a beam of radiation and a dosimeter configured to detect in real-time the beam of radiation emitted by the linear accelerator. The dosimeter includes at least one linear array of scintillating fibers configured to capture radiation from the beam at a plurality of independent angular orientations, and a detection system coupled to the at least one linear array, the detection system configured to detect the beam of radiation by measuring an output of the scintillating fibers. |
