Özet

Purpose: Polymer gel materials are used as dosimeters to provide three dimensional radiation dose distribution. An ideal gel dosimeter should offer radiological properties equivalent to water. This study aims to determine and compare the water equivalencies of various new polymer gel mixtures using Geant4-based Architecture for Medicine-Oriented Simulations (GAMOS) software program.
