Characterization of commercial detectors for absolute proton UHDR dosimetry on a compact clinical proton synchrocyclotron
In this work, we comprehensively evaluated the suitability of various commercial detectors for absolute dosimetry with a pulsed UHDR beam structure from a proton synchrocyclotron. PPC05 had the lowest ionic recombination correction compared to Razor and Razor Nano ion chambers. Other than the diode detector, all other investigated detectors (PPC05, Razor, Razor Nano, microDiamond) were within ± 1% of one another and can be used for accurate absolute proton UHDR dosimetry.
