Radiation measurement system for radiotherapy
A scintillating-plastic sensor, optical fibre and custom software to measure radiation at precisely localized points.
Our process
How it was done, step by step.
It’s continuing to decrease: the block remains on screen, and the project progresses phase by phase, with the actual work carried out by i-mas in each phase.
Phase 11 / 4The project
Fase 02 · The challenge
Obtain fast, localized measurements in very specific areas, using a sensor small enough not to interfere with the radiation field itself.
Fase 03 · Development
We jointly designed a custom sensor based on scintillating plastic connected to an optical fibre and a photomultiplier. The system detects radiation over a wide range with high sensitivity. Its small size allows highly localized measurements, while the optical fibre enables remote data acquisition.
Fase 04 · Final product
The system quickly and precisely characterizes radiation at specific points in radiotherapy equipment. It includes custom control software and is used in hospitals and research centres internationally.
