Sažetak
Over the 50 years of its existence, the IAEA/WHO postal dose audit service has played an important role in improving the accuracy and consistency of dosimetry in radiation therapy across the globe. The service has been used by over 2300 radiotherapy hospitals in 135 countries and several clinically relevant errors in the calibration of therapy beams were detected and corrected. By providing dose audits, the IAEA/WHO assist radiotherapy hospitals in achieving and maintaining accurate dosimetry for radiotherapy which benefit many patients worldwide.
