Highly precise dose delivery to the target (tumor or cancerous tissue) is a key point when brain diseases are treated applying recent stereotactic techniques: intensity-modulated, image-guided radiotherapy, volumetric modulated arc therapy, Gamma knife radiosurgery. The doses in one single shot may vary between tens and hundreds of Gy and cause significant cell/tissue/organ damages. This indicates the need for implementation of quality assurance (QA) measures which are realized performing treatment dose verification with more than one calibrated quality assurance method or tool, especially when functional radiosurgery with a high dose (up to 40 Gy in our case) shall be delivered to the target using small 4 mm collimator. Application of two dosimetry methods: radiochromic film dosimetry using RTQA2 and EBT3 films and dose gel dosimetry using modified nPAG polymer gels for quality assurance purposes in stereotactic radiosurgery treatments using Leksell Gamma Knife© Icon™ facility is discussed in this paper. It is shown that due to their polymerization ability upon irradiation nPAG gels might be potentially used as a quality assurance tool in Gamma knife radiosurgery: they indicate well pronounced linear dose response in hypo-fractionated (up to 10 Gy) dose range and are sensitive enough to irradiation dose changes with a high (at least 0.2 mm) spatial resolution. Dose assessment sensitivity of gels depends on parameters of a dose evaluation method (optical or magnetic resonance imaging), however, is similar to this estimated using film dosimetry, which is set as a standard dosimetry method for dose verification in radiotherapy.
