An experimental study of the dose response of polymer gel dosimeters imaged with x-ray computed tomography.
Changes in the linear attenuation coefficient of polymer gel dosimeters post-irradiation enable the imaging of dose distributions by x-ray computed tomography (CT). Various compositions of polymer gel dosimeters manufactured from acrylamide (AA), and N,N'-methylene-bis-acrylamide (BIS) comonomers and gelatin or agarose gelling agents were investigated. This work shows that increasing the comono...
متن کاملDose 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 کاملReview of Fricke gel dosimeters
The innovation of adding a gel matrix to the traditional Fricke dosimeter to stabilize geometric information established the field of gel dosimetry for radiation therapy. A discussion of Fricke gels provides an overview of the issues that determine the dose response of all gel dosimeters in general. In this paper we review some of the features of Fricke systems to illustrate these issues and, i...
متن کاملVerification of the PAGAT polymer gel dosimeter by photon beams using magnetic resonance imaging
Background: In this work investigation of the normoxic PAGAT polymer gel dosimeter such as sensitivity, the R2-dose response with post time and the percentage depth dose (PDD) of PAGAT polymer gel dosimeter have been undertaken. Materials and Methods: Using MRI, the formulation to give the maximum change in the transverse relaxation rate R2 was determined to be 4.5% N,N'-methylenbis- ...
