Basic investigation on performance of low-density polymer gel dosimeter
Background: In this study a series of basic dosimetric properties of a low-density (LD) gel dosimeter are investigated. The dose response is studied regarding to linearity, sensitivity, dose-rate and energy dependence as well as lung tissue equivalence. Materials and Methods: The LD gel was made by mixing the polymer gel with expanded polystyrene spheres. Energy dependence was studied...

متن کاملElectron Beam Dosimetry in Heterogeneous Phantoms Using a MAGIC Normoxic Polymer Gel
Introduction: Nowadays radiosensitive polymer gels are used as a reliable dosimetry tool for verification of 3D dose distributions. Special characteristics of these dosimeters have made them useful for verification of complex dose distributions in clinical situations. The aim of this work was to evaluate the capability of a normoxic polymer gel to determine electron dose distributions in differ...
متن کاملSmall field dose delivery evaluations using cone beam optical computed tomography-based polymer gel dosimetry
This paper explores the combination of cone beam optical computed tomography with an N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM)-based polymer gel dosimeter for three-dimensional dose imaging of small field deliveries. Initial investigations indicate that cone beam optical imaging of polymer gels is complicated by scattered stray light perturbation. This can lead to significant dosimetry failures in comparis...
متن کاملEvaluation of Gold Nanoparticle Size Effect on Dose Enhancement Factor in Megavoltage Beam Radiotherapy Using MAGICA Polymer Gel Dosimeter
Background: Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) are among the most promising radiosensitive materials in radiotherapy. Studying the effective sensitizing factors such as nanoparticle size, concentration, surface features, radiation energy and cell type can help to optimize the effect and possible clinical application of GNPs in radiation therapy. In this study, the radiation sensitive polymer gel was use...
