Abstract
Data from a first radiation detector and a second radiation detector can be used to determine a radiation dose pattern delivered to a radiation target from a radiation source. The first radiation detector can be positioned to intercept ionizing radiation directed from the radiation source toward the radiation target before the ionizing radiation has impinged on the radiation target and the second radiation detector can be positioned to intercept the ionizing radiation after the ionizing radiation has passed through the radiation target. Methods, systems, articles of manufacture, and computer program products are described.
