Measurement of a PAGAT gel dosimeter via ultrasound CT
In this work we use a 3D quantitative CT imaging ultrasound system to characterise polymer gel dosimeters. The system comprises of two identical 5 MHz 128 element phasedarray ultrasound transducers co-axially aligned and submerged in water as a coupling agent. Rotational and translational movement of the gel dosimeter sample between the transducers were performed using a robotic arm. Ultrasound...
متن کاملFabrication and Optimization of a PAGATA Gel Dosimeter: Increasing the Melting Point of the PAGAT Gel Dosimeter with Agarose Additive
Introduction: The PAGAT polymer gel dosimeter melts at 30 ˚C and even at room temperature during the summer, so it needs to be kept in a cool place such as a refrigerator. To increase the stability of the PAGAT gel, different amounts of agarose were added to the PAGAT gel composition and the PAGATA gel was manufactured. Material and Methods: The PAGATA gel vials were irradiated using a Co-60 ma...
متن کاملDetermination of Percentage Depth Dose (Pdd) of Pagat Gel Dosimeter By Electron Beams
Background: The purpose of this study was to determine the percentage depth dose (PDD) of PAGAT normoxic polymer gel dosimeter by electron beams using MRI technique for a standard clinically used Co-60 therapy unit and an electa linear accelerator. Materials and Methods: Using MRI, the formulation to give the maximum change in the transverse relaxation rate R2(1/T2) was determined to be 4.5% N,...
متن کاملDosimetry of gamma chamber blood irradiator using PAGAT gel dosimeter and Monte Carlo simulations
Currently, the use of blood irradiation for inactivating pathogenic microbes in infected blood products and preventing graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in immune suppressed patients is greater than ever before. In these systems, dose distribution and uniformity are two important concepts that should be checked. In this study, dosimetry of the gamma chamber blood irradiator model Gammacell 3000 ...
متن کاملDevelopment and Characterization of Normoxic Polyhydroxyethylacrylate (PHEA) Gel Dosimeter using Raman Spectroscopy
Raman spectroscopy are used to characterize the chemical changes in normoxic polyhydroxyethylacrylate gel dosimeter (PHEA) induced by radiation. Irradiations in the low dose region are performed and the polymerizations of PHEA gels are monitored by the observing the changes of Raman shift intensity of the carbon covalent bond of PHEA originated from both monomer and the cross-linker. The variat...
