Optimisation of the MAGAT gel dosimeter compositions
Background: An effective polymer gel dosimeter can be fabricated by varying the composition of its chemical components. Materials and Methods: The MAGAT gel dosimeter formulations that used different compositions of Methacrylic acid (MAA) and gelatin were extensively investigated in the present study according to the R2–dose response and R2–dose sensitivity. The irradiation of M...
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 کاملRadiological and Economic Impact of Decommissioning Charged Particle Accelerators
To evaluate the real radiological and economic consequences of future dismantling of particle accelerators, up to now insufficient information was available in literature or even at the individual accelerator facilities themselves. DG ENV/C3 of the European Commission launched a project with focus on gathering quantitative and scientifically sound data on the number of accelerators in the EU, o...

Background: Radiation-sensitive polymer gels are among the most promising three-dimensional dose verification tools and tissue-like phantom developed to date.Objective: The aim of this study is an investigating of percentage depth dose enhancement within the gel medium with used of conformal distribution gold nanoparticle as contrast agents by high atomic number material.Methods: In this work t...
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...
