Characterization with X-rays of a Large-Area GEMPix Detector with Optical Readout for QA in Hadron Therapy

Characterization with X-rays of a Large-Area GEMPix Detector with Optical Readout for QA in Hadron Therapy

Quality Assurance (QA) in hadron therapy is crucial to ensure safe and accurate dose delivery to patients. This can be achieved with fast, reliable and high-resolution detectors. In this paper, we present a novel solution that combines a triple Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) and a highly pixelated re...
