The presence of high-Z materials adjacent to soft tissues, when submitted to irradiation, locally enhances the absorbed dose in these tissues. This effect is due to the outscattering of photoelectrons from the high-Z materials. The aim of the present work was to measure the absorbed dose enhancement caused by gold foils on polymeric gel.
