Tomographic detection of photon pairs produced from high-energy X-rays for the monitoring of radiotherapy dosing

Measuring the radiation dose reaching a patient’s body is difficult. Here we report a technique for the tomographic reconstruction of the location of photon pairs originating from the annihilation of positron–electron pairs produced by high-energy X-rays travelling through tissue. We used Monte Carl...
