Assurance of precision radiotherapy quality control: The advances in position/dose monitoring technologies / 西安交通大学学报(医学版)

ABSTRACT

How to realize the real-time monitoring of the position and dose of the superficial tumor target area in the process of radiotherapy and ensure the target area to receive sufficient radiation dose, so as to improve the local control rate of patients is both the key problem to be solved urgently in radiotherapy and an important way for the accurate and safe implementation of quality control and quality assurance. The ideal radiotherapy monitoring technology should have the advantages of being non-radiation and non-invasive, and three-dimensional dynamic real-time imaging. This paper will briefly review the existing location and dose monitoring technologies in the process of precise radiotherapy.
