Dose uncertainties were in the range 1%\u20133%. Three sets of percentage depth dose measurements showed good agreement within 1.6%. Energy (LET) dependence led to measured peak doses being 23% lower than the treatment planning system (TPS) calculations. Proton energy effects in the plateau region were limited and dose rate effects were not recognized. Beam profiles in the axes parallel and perpendicular to the beam axis showed variations of approximately 1.2% and 1.3%, respectively, compared with the TPS calculations. The SPR was consistent with the TPS derived from CT values (1.03).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The VIPET dosimeter showed high reproducibility and uniformity in range and dose measurements of proton therapy beams without energy dependency in the plateau region or dose rate dependency in 2\u20138\u00a0Gy\/min.
