Investigating the effect of a magnetic field on dose distributions at phantom-air interfaces using PRESAGE(®) 3D dosimeter and Monte Carlo simulations

Dosimetric quality assurance (QA) of the new Elekta Unity (MR-linac) will differ from the QA performed of a conventional linac due to the constant magnetic field, which creates an electron return effect (ERE). In this work we aim to validate PRESAGE(®) dosimetry in a transverse magnetic field, and a...
