Detector Technology Sun Nuclear’s objective is simple: To provide the Medical Physics community with a fresh approach to radiation measurement by improving the measurement quality while also streamlining the process. Sun Nuclear manufactures radiation therapy quality assurance instruments using both diode and ionization chamber technology. Sun Nuclear chooses a detector type based on the application for which the instrument is intended. The Daily QA 3™ uses both detector types. Applications involving the measurement of steep dose gradients require a small detector if accurate and precise measurements are desired.
