In radiotherapy, it is essential to have an alternative dosimetric system to identify possible errors at some stage of the process. The optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) technology represents a great advance in the detection of radiation in different areas, one of them being in the area of clinical dosimetry. Objective: To implement an alternative dosimetric system, based on OSL technology of carbon-doped aluminum oxide crystals. Material and methods: Al2or3:C detectors called "nanodot", MicroStar reader, ionization chambers (Standard Imaging and PTW Freiburg), electrometers (PTW-Freiburg and MNCNP) and other accessories. Results: The dosimetric - algorithmic procedure, developed for the calculation of the adsorbed dose in the tumor volume, reproduces the dose values with uncertainties less than 2% for a confidence level of 95% and with relative differences less than 5%...
