A characterization of LCV micelle gel dosimeters for boron neutron capture therapy

Abstract

Abstract As a method for three-dimensional quality assurance in boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT), micelle gel dosimeters are focused on. We are investigating dose-component discrimination method by using multiple gel dosimeters which have each different radiation quality specificity. In this study, the characteristics of each gel dosimeter for neutrons and gamma-rays were evaluated, and a dose-component discrimination method was suggested.
