Dosimetric study of thermoluminescent detectors in clinical photon beams using liquid water and PMMA phantoms

► Dosimetric study of thermoluminescent detectors of CaSO4:Dy, LiF:Mg,Ti and μLiF:Mg,Ti. ► Clinical (6 and 15 MV) photon beams dosimetry using liquid water and PMMA phantom. ► Linear behavior to the dose range (0.1 to 5 Gy). ► TL response reproducibility better than ±4.34%. ► CaSO4:Dy represent a cheaper alternative to the TLD-100.
