The system is based on the fact that the ion beam used for hadrontherapy treatments generates a charge build-up on the patient, which can be collected and measured using electrodes placed close to the treated area. The measurement is non-invasive because the electrodes are simply placed in contact with the patient’s skin, it can be performed in real time and during treatment, as it does not interact with the beam. Moreover, unlike conventional dosimeters, the measurement does not need to be calibrated, as it provides the value of the total absorbed charge, and is not dependent on the energy and angle of incidence of the beam.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”4363″ img_size=”full” qode_css_animation=””][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]The technology has several advantages:<\/p>\n
