Radiation Effects and Dosimetry

A TLD system is described which permits the measurement of absorbed X-ray doses in a water phantom, together with the quality of the incident X-ray beam. The system has been developed for dose and energy intercomparison studies between centres with deep therapy X-ray machines. A distinction has been made between deep therapy treatments and treatments at or near the surface.
