Abstract
Genipin gel is a radiochromic gel with the potential to be used as a three dimensional (3D) dosimeter. An ideal dosimeter should present radiologically water equivalent properties. In this work, we have evaluated the water equivalency of genipin gel by calculating its radiological properties, such as mass and electron density, effective atomic number, fractional interaction probabilities, mass energy absorption coefficient and mass stopping powers as well as depth doses for kilovoltage x-ray and megavoltage electron beams. Based on the results of this study, we conclude that genipin gel is a water equivalent dosimeter.
