Dose Course Book

Conclusions: measurement in solid phantoms

•Liquid water the recommended medium for

reference dosimetry

•Formalism exists to convert dose to solid phantom to dose to water;

Epoxy resin-based solid phantoms could be used for both reference and relative

dosimetry (to within 1%), BUT one needs to check these first for water equivalence.

Formalism can be used both for dose-to-water and dose-to medium dose verification
