Description
Yunjie Yang and Maria Chan replied in 2026 to critics of their radiation dose measurement work. Their paper commissioned a point dosimetry system called Pnt-Dos. To check accuracy, they compared its readings in a phantom against doses from an ion chamber tied to standard calibration. Walewska and co-authors had questioned how the reference dose was set.
The reply explains that patient measurements were a secondary aim. In their clinic, in vivo checks serve two jobs: watching doses near implanted heart devices, and verifying skin doses for electron and modulated treatments that use bolus. For the second job, the prescribed dose is the reference. The writers thank the critics for adapting their framework to the system.
