Radiation therapy is a major oncology modality for cancer treatment and more than 50% of cancer patients can benefit from radiotherapy at some stage of management. This project will develop two real-time, high spatial resolution dosimetry systems for quality assurance of contemporary radiation treatments of static and movable targets. It will be possible to minimize human and robotic system error so as to guarantee accurate cancer treatment delivery and improve the clinical outcomes of radiotherapy.

放射治疗是癌症治疗的主要肿瘤学方式，超过50%的癌症患者在治疗的某个阶段可以从放射治疗中获益。该项目将开发两个实时、高空间分辨率的剂量测定系统，用于保证静态和可移动目标的当代辐射治疗的质量。将有可能最大限度地减少人类和机器人系统的误差，以确保准确的癌症治疗交付并改善放射治疗的临床结果。
