Abstract Three different dosimetry systems were prepared based on diphenyl thiocarbazone (DTH) dye: polymer films made with, poly(vinyl alcohol), DTH liquid dosimeter and gel dosimeter. All the received several gamma doses. The three analyzing by UV–Vis spectrophotometery before after irradiation. effective dose range in linear part of these is between 1–10 kGy, 0.3–2 50–200 Gy. dosimeters reli...

Background: Some ssues in human body are radiobiologically different from water and these inhomogeneity must be considered in dose calcula on in order to achieve an accurate dose delivery. Dose verifica on in complex radia on therapy techniques, such as intensity‐modulated radia on therapy (IMRT) calls for volumetric, ssue equivalent and energy independent dosimeter. The purpose of this study i...

John Gore’s seminal 1984 paper on gel dosimetry spawned a vibrant research field ranging from fundamental science through to clinical applications. A preliminary bibliometric study was undertaken of the gel dosimetry family of publications inspired by, and resulting from, Gore’s original 1984 paper to determine active growth areas, research trends and hot topics from Gore’s paper up to and incl...

background: since 1984 mri gel dosimetry has been introduced as a potential technique for 3d dosimetry. most of the studies have measured r1 (1/t1) or r2 (1/t2) properties of the gel depending on the gel type. we have studied image intensity change in the fricke gel by different mri protocols. materials and methods: gel dosimeters contain 0.4 mm ferrous sulphate, 1 mm nacl, 50 mm h2so4 and 1% b...

Introduction: Different dosimetric modalities (e.g., ionization chambers, semiconductors, TLDs, radiographic films) often have some problems determining isodose curves and percentage depth doses in high dose gradient regions. Research has been ongoing to develop portable high resolution dosimetry devices with accurate absolute dosimetry capabilities and easy data analysis. The ‘PRESAGE’ dosimet...

Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a form of chemically targeted radiotherapy that utilises the high neutron capture cross-section of boron-10 isotope to achieve a preferential dose increase in the tumour. The BNCT dosimetry poses a special challenge as the radiation dose absorbed by the irradiated tissues consists of several dose components with different relative biological effectiveness...

background: gel polymers are considered as new dosimeters for determining radiotherapy dose distribution in three dimensions. objective: the ability of a new formulation of magic-f polymer gel was assessed by experimental measurement and monte carlo (mc) method for studying the effect of gold nanoparticles (gnps) in prostate dose distributions under the internal ir-192 and external 18mv radioth...
