Fabrication And Dosimetric Characterization Of Novel Tissue-Equivalent Rhizophora Spp. Phantoms For Radiation Therapy Applications

Phantoms constructed from tissue-equivalent materials (TEMs) are used to assess radiation dose delivered to patients and evaluate the quality of radiological imaging systems. However, very few of these materials have been developed for dose estimations with low and high energy photon and high energy...
