1. A system for determining at least a portion of the shape of a radiation field generated by a radiation delivery system that includes a radiation source configured to deliver a radiation beam, system comprising:
a scintillator mounted to the radiation delivery system such that the scintillator substantially follows a contour of a bore of the radiation delivery system; and
one or more cameras configured to acquire images of light emitted by the scintillator during delivery of the radiation beam.
