Radiation dosimetry

the ratio of dose at a given depth in phantom to the dose at the depth of maximum dose for the same field size and source distance.

In radiation dosimetry, tissue-maximum ratio refers to the ratio of dose at a given depth in phantom to the dose at the depth of maximum dose for the same field size and source distance. This meaning comes from Holt (1970) in Radiology.[1]
