1. A computer program product for evaluating a radiation dose delivered to a patient, the computer program product comprising:
- a non-transitory computer readable storage medium having computer readable program code embodied in the medium, the computer-readable program code comprising;
computer readable program code for receiving pre-irradiation threshold voltage data associated with a plurality of disposable sensor patches;
computer readable program code for accepting data from a reader configured to electrically serially contact each of the plurality of disposable sensors; and
computer readable program code for determining the voltage threshold shift of the disposable sensor patches after radiation to determine the radiation exposure.

Abstract
Methods, systems, devices, and computer program products include positioning single-use radiation sensor patches that have adhesive means onto the skin of a patient to evaluate the radiation dose delivered during a treatment session. The sensor patches are configured to be minimally obtrusive and operate without the use of externally extending power cords or lead wires.

- 7. A dosimeter radiation sensor for quantifying radiation exposure or dose, comprising a sensor circuit that includes a MOSFET pair configuration that does not require floating gate structures and/or external voltage applied during radiation.
- 14. A dose-reader device comprising a sensor port that is adapted to receive a sensor patch, the sensor patch having a tab portion adapted to be inserted into the sensor port and electrically couple the sensor patch to the reader device to provide data associated with an operational parameter in the sensor patch to the reader device.
