摘要: Abstract This study investigated the dose response and stability of dose-rate independent silicone-based radiochromic dosimeters (FlexyDos3D), which exhibit substantial potential in fabricating deformable anthropomorphic phantoms for radiotherapy dosimetry. The induced optical absorption changes were using two readout modalities: a UV-VIS spectrophotometer flatbed scanner. spectral measurement visible wavelength 400 nm–700 nm showed principle peak at 626 nm, secondary 424 nm valley area with minimal between around 470 nm. Dose strong linearity 0 90.3 Gy. was determined by measuring absorptions various times. phenomena increase dosimeters' density background (creep-up effect) decrease irradiated dosimeters’ (fading identified, these effects can be well depicted proposed dual-component model. gradient integrity assessed profiles that formed sharp dose-falloff. time-dependent indicated diminished fast over time.
