Cherenkov emission‐based external radiotherapy dosimetry: II. Electron beam quality specification and uncertainties

Purpose Cherenkov emission (CE) is ubiquitous in external radiotherapy. It is also unique in that it carries the promise of 3D, micrometer‐resolution, perturbation‐free, in‐water dosimetry with a beam quality‐independent detector response calibration. Our aim is to bring CE‐based dosimetry into the...
