abstract = {Polymer gel (PG) dosimetry is a valuable tool to measure
complex dose distributions in 3D with a high spatial
resolution. However, due to complex protocols that need to
be followed for in-house produced PGs and the high costs of
commercially available gels, PG gels are only rarely applied
in quality assurance procedures worldwide. In this work, we
provide an introduction to perform highly standardized
dosimetric PG experiments using PAGAT (PolyAcrylamide
Gelatine gel fabricated at ATmospheric conditions) dosimetry
gel. PAGAT gel can be produced at atmospheric conditions, at
low costs and is evaluated using magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI). The conduction of PG experiments is described in
great detail including the gel production, treatment
planning, irradiation, MRI evaluation and post-processing
procedure. Furthermore, a plugin in an open source image
processing tool for post-processing is provided free of
charge that allows a standardized and reproducible analysis
of PG experiments.},
