Dose‐ rather than fluence‐averaged LET should be used as a single‐parameter descriptor of proton beam quality for radiochromic film dosimetry

PURPOSE: The dose response of Gafchromic EBT3 films exposed to proton beams depends on the dose, and additionally on the beam quality, which is often quantified with the linear energy transfer (LET) and, hence, also referred to as LET quenching. Fundamentally different methods to determine correctio...
