Čerenkov radiation emission and excited luminescence (CREL) sensitivity during external beam radiation therapy: Monte Carlo and tissue oxygenation phantom studies

Radiotherapy generates Čerenkov radiation emission in tissue, and spectral absorption features appearing in the emission spectrum can be used to quantify blood oxygen saturation (S(t)O(2)) from the known absorptions of hemoglobin. Additionally, the Čerenkov light can be used to excite oxygen-sensiti...
