Resumo
FLASH radiotherapy (FLASH-RT) is a promising approach to cancer
treatment, characterized by the delivery of high doses of radiation in a short period of
time, within fractions of seconds. In order to demonstrate the FLASH effect, single high
doses of radiation delivered in very short times through a limited number of pulses are
required. Previous studies have reported that FLASH-RT treatment can result in
increased cell survival compared to conventional radiotherapy. This article aims to
conduct a comprehensive literature search on dosimetry in FLASH radiotherapy, an
emerging and promising technique in the field of radiotherapy. Some of the most used
dosimeters in recent studies for FLASH radiotherapy will be discussed, including
ionization chambers, diamond detectors, radiochromic films, EBT3 radiochromic films
and thermoluminescent dosimeters. The main dosimetry parameters used in FLASH
radiotherapy treatments will be analyzed, with emphasis on the characteristics and
applicability of the different types of dosimeters used.
