Popis:	A routine diode in vivo dosimetry program based on a combination of entrance and exit dose measurements was clinically implemented in the radiation oncology department of Grace Hospital, Detroit, in January 1995. The delivered dose has been monitored by taking weekly measurements. The calibration of the diodes and the in vivo dosimetry protocol for this new, more effective type of dose verification is presented. The problems encountered within the program are discussed along with our solutions.
