Abstract

Dosimetric analysis is a critical component in radiation therapy delivery. In radiation therapy, bolus materials are frequently used to alter the dose distribution. In this study, we used Optically Stimulated Luminescent Dosimeters (OSLDs) to carry out a thorough dosimetric examination of several bolus materials when used with high-energy photon beams. Our research aimed to assess the performance of various bolus materials in terms of dose enhancement and surface dose. The findings of this study offer important insights into choosing the best bolus material for a particular clinical situation, optimizing treatment outcomes, and ensuring proper patient care.
