Ionizing radiation (IR) is used in a variety of medical procedures for both therapeutic and diagnostic purposes. When employed as a treatment method, in radiotherapy, the main aim is to eradicate cancerous cells while exposing healthy tissues to the least amount of radiation. It is crucial in order...
