Abstract
A novel water equivalent formulation of PRESAGE dosimeter more suitable for radiotherapy applications has been introduced and its radiological water equivalency has been investigated. Furthermore, its radiological properties have been compared with an existing PRESAGE formulation over an energy range from 10 to 20 MeV. Monte Carlo simulation method has been implemented to determine and compare depth dose profiles in both of the PRESAGE formulations at two different photon energies (140 KV P and 6 MV). The results show that our proposed PRESAGE formulation is more water equivalent than its known formulation especially for low photon energy beams.
