Results of a remote audit program of reference and non-reference dosimetry of photon beams using alanine detectors

Key Points

• Findings reveal discrepancies in dosimetry measurements, highlighting the importance of regular audits to maintain accuracy.
• The audit program used alanine detectors to assess both reference and non-reference dosimetry in photon beams, enhancing measurement reliability.
• Observational analysis across multiple institutions demonstrated significant variations in dose measurements, underscoring the need for standardization.
• These results call for the implementation of continuous monitoring practices in radiotherapy to ensure patient safety and treatment efficacy.
