Abstract Cancer prevention and treatment are currently the focus of most research. Dose verification is an important step for reducing improper dose deposition during radiotherapy. To mend traditional gel dosimeters 3D verification, a novel rare-earth nanoparticle-based composite was prepared, which has good radioluminescence property reusability. It promising phantom material new dosimeter. TE...

introduction: the purpose of this work was to study the ability of mri normoxic polymer gel dosimetry for evaluating the dose distribution in hdr brachytherapy of esophagial cancer at imam reza brachytherapy center (mashhad, iran). materials and methods: initially, 2liters of normoxic gel (magic) was fabricated and then poured into 12 calibration test tubes and placed in a perspex walled phanto...

CyberKnife is one of multiple modalities for stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). Due to the nature of CyberKnife and the characteristics of SRS, dose evaluation of the CyberKnife procedure is critical. A radiophotoluminescent glass dosimeter was used to verify the dose accuracy for the CyberKnife procedure and validate a viable dose verification system for CyberKnife treatment. A radiophotolumines...

Polymer gels whose NMR and optical properties change when irradiated offer unique advantages for measuring radiation dose distributions. To date, all acrylic polymer gel dosimeters must be manufactured, stored and irradiated in hypoxic conditions which severely limits their use and stability. A new formulation of acrylic dosimeter gel has been developed that responds well in normal atmosphere a...

Deformable 3D dosimeters have potential applications in validating deformable dose mapping algorithms. This study evaluates a novel deformable PRESAGE® dosimeter and its application toward validating the deformable algorithm employed by VelocityAI. The deformable PRESAGE® dosimeter exhibited a linear dose response with a sensitivity of 0.0032 ΔOD/(Gy/cm). Comparison of an experimental dosimeter...
