Dose response evaluation of a low density anoxic polymer gel dosimeter using MRI
Background: The human body contains of different tissues and cavities with different physical and radiological properties. Most important among these are tissues and cavities that are radiologically different from water, including lungs, sinuses and bones. Gel dosimetry provides a unique feature to display dose distributions occurring in clinical radiation therapy in three dimensions. Materials...
متن کاملBasic 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...
