External dosimetry audits give confidence in the safe and accurate delivery of radiotherapy. In the United Kingdom, such audits have been performed for almost 30 years. From the start, they included clinically relevant conditions, as well as reference machine output. Recently, national audits have tested new or complex techniques, but these methods are then used in regional audits by a peer-to-peer approach. This local approach builds up the radiotherapy community, facilitates communication, and brings synergy to medical physics.
外照射剂量学审核为放射治疗的安全准确实施提供了信心保障。在英国,此类审核已开展了近30年。从一开始,审核就涵盖了临床相关情况以及参考机器输出。最近,全国性审核对新的或复杂的技术进行了测试,而后这些方法通过同行互审的方式应用于地区性审核。这种本地化方法增强了放射治疗领域的凝聚力,促进了交流,并为医学物理带来了协同效应。
