Abstract

Ultra-high dose rate reduces adverse side effects in radiotherapy (FLASH effect). Studies and implementation in practice requires accurate dose measurements. An European joint research project was started to develop a measurement framework. Tools for dosimetry of ultra-high pulse dose rate beams will be provided.
