Abstract |
In this work, the dosimetric performance of several Commercial Of The Shelf photodiodes was studied. They were tested against gamma rays from a teletherapy source and were characterized with the aim of building a one-dimensional array of dosimeters able to measure the the spatial distribution of dose in a radiotherapy irradiation field. An embedded system comprising an array of 40 photodiodes and its acquisition electronics was built and tested. The dose resolution of each detector was 0.06 cGy and the spatial resolution of the system 0.5 cm. |

Abstract |
This paper presents the use of Commercial Off The Shelf CMOS image sensors for the acquisition of X-ray images with high spatial resolution. The X-ray images, with application in biology, electronic components inspection or paleontology research, are obtained with 8 keV photons from a Cu tube. The quantum efficiency of the detector is estimated using attenuation lengths of photons in the sensor, and compared to traditional scintillator conversion layers. |
