Abstract: Measuring and tracking energy emitted by a radiation source. A system includes an image sensor for sensing electromagnetic radiation and a scintillator. The scintillator absorbs energy emitted by a radiation source and scintillates the absorbed energy. The system is such that the image sensor senses an image frame depicting at least a portion of the scintillator when the radiation source emits the energy. The image frame comprises an indication of where the energy is absorbed by the scintillator.
