  • Abstract
    The use of diamond detectors in radiotherapy and their potential advantage over silicon diodes and ionisation chambers is reviewed. Preliminary results on the performance of CVD diamond detectors in an X-ray beam are presented. While the devices are sufficiently sensitive, applications as dosimeters are at present limited by time dependent effects. Prospects for further work are described.
