Dosimetric characteristics of N-vinylpyrrolidone based polymer gels: utilization depending on dose range

In this study, two types of normoxic N-vinylpyrrolidone based polymer gel, VIPET1v and VIPET2v, were presented. VIPET2v had the double amount of monomer compared to the VIPET1v. The influence of this difference in the dosimetric characteristics of the polymer gel dosimeters was investigated. The dou...

Zusammenfassung:In this study, two types of normoxic N-vinylpyrrolidone based polymer gel, VIPET1v and VIPET2v, were presented. VIPET2v had the double amount of monomer compared to the VIPET1v. The influence of this difference in the dosimetric characteristics of the polymer gel dosimeters was investigated. The doubling in N-vinylpyrrolidone concentration increased the dose sensitivity in the linear dose range region and improved the dose resolution at 95% confidence level for lower doses (D
