The tissue/water equivalent properties of phantom materials and dosimeters are necessary
to carry out quality assurance (QA) and dosimetry in radiation medicine such as diagnostic …

Background: The aim of this study was to compare the dosimetric properties of various water-
equivalent phantom materials, such as solid water WT1 (WT1), solid water RMI457 …

Background: The aim of this study is to evaluate the dose calculation algorithms commonly
used in TPS by using MC simulation in the highly different inhomogeneous region and in the …

Ionizing radiation shielding is required to prevent or mitigate the radiological risks resulting
therefrom. Low Z materials such as polyethylene are preferable for neutron shielding, while …

Background:: One of the most important qualities of a radiation dosimeter is tissue-
equivalent, which represents radiation absorption and scattering that is similar to that of …

In this work we obtained experimental linear attenuation coefficients of polymer-based
samples at diagnostic imaging energy range (15-150 keV) for eleven formulations …

Several authors have mentioned calculations of the effective atomic numbers (Z eff) and
effective electron density (N eff) on amino acids, carbohydrates, and nucleotides. Recently …

Treatment planning systems (TPS) have an important role in the implementation of
radiotherapy treatment. Quality control of TPS is extremely important in terms of treatment …

Stereotactic ablative radiation therapy (SABR) involves the precise delivery of high doses of
radiation to target volumes. Such treatments require high levels of confidence in their …

The X-rays were examined, which consist of the effect of 6 MeV energized electrons on
different thickness and material of targets, using the MC method. When the PDDs are …
