This study aimed at proving the ability of bismuth-nanoparticle (Bi-np) in dose enhancement effect (DEE) using the polymer gel dosimeter. Two different polymer gels, namely poly acrylamide gelatin tetrakis hydroxymethyl phosphonium chloride (PAGAT) and N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) gels were chosen for this study.
