1. A computer program product held in a reader for evaluating a radiation dose delivered to a patient during a therapy session, 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 configured to communicate with an electronic memory of at least one single use dosimeter patch to obtain threshold data corresponding to a dose amount of radiation exposure that the at least one sensor patch is exposed to in use;
computer readable program code configured to prompt a user to provide predetermined data associate with the dose amount, patient data and/or clinic data; and
computer readable program code configured to measure a zero temperature coefficient of a MOSFET prior to administration of radiation during a therapeutic procedure.

Abstract
Methods, systems, devices, and computer program products include positioning disposable 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 chords or lead wires.

6. A portable medical dose reader device comprising:
-
a portable housing; and a circuit integrated with the portable housing, the circuit being configured to communicate with an electronic memory of at least one single use dosimeter patch that can be releasably secured to be in intimate contact with skin of the patient to obtain voltage threshold data corresponding to a dose amount of radiation exposure that the at least one sensor patch is exposed to in use and to prompt a user to input predetermined data associated with the dose amount, patient data and/or clinic data; wherein the circuit is further configured to measure a zero temperature coefficient of the MOSFET prior to administration of radiation during a therapeutic procedure. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12)
