Abstract

Optical imaging is a valuable tool for quality assessment (QA)in radiation therapy. During experiments with proton beams, we discovered that water emits light when irradiated by protons. Additionally, we conducted optical imaging studies for various types of radiation exposure. This article provides an overview of optical imaging in radiation therapy, with a primary focus on the studies we have conducted to date.
