| Abstract [eng] |
A rapid development of the new radiation based cancer treatment technologies that are more individualized and patient oriented request precise 3D treatment dose verification methods in high dose gradient fields. Polymeric dose gels are excellent 3D dosemeters that allow analysis of spatial dose distribution in the irradiated target and also in the regions out of the target since the investigation of low dose induced secondary effects (secondary cancer, inflammations) stands on the priority list. Since the sensitivity of dose gel to different types of irradiation depends on radiation induced polymerization processes, in this work we present Raman analysis results related to advanced nMAG dose gels polymerization upon its irradiation with high energy photons and protons to doses ≤ 5 Gy. |
