A new formulation of polymer gel dosimeter with reduced toxicity: Dosimetric characteristics and radiological properties.

The present study aimed to produce a new, less toxic, and cost-effective polymer gel dosimeter using potassium salt of 2-acrylamido-2 methyl-propane sulfonic acid (AMPS) monomer. The new formulation was called PAKAG. The irradiation of PAKAG polymer gel dosimeter was performed using a 6 MV clinical linear accelerator, and its response was evaluated using magnetic resonance imaging.
