Fibre Optics Approach to Dosimetry
[article]
2014
The refractive index change results in a shortening of the optical path length and as a result, light passing through the sample experiences a phase change. ...
Phase information cannot be directly measured, as it is merely a property of light wave propagation, thus another technique must be used. ...
The idea in this work is to use the phantom medium itself as a sensor, in which the dose is read by an optical approach with sufficient resolution for MRT purposes. ...
