2D: Detector arrays

Trends towards so called “digital hospitals” • No access to film processing machine • Film dosimetry limited to radiochromic films

Wish to implement fast real-time procedures for measurements

2D detector arrays are an option

• No necessity to downscale MUs to the sensitive range (not for EBT- XT)

• Potential for absolute dose measurements • Results available immediately after irradiation • Mostly limited to single beam verification
