Dosimeters and Phantoms

["Rob Gunter" <gunterrj@hotmail.com>]

Does anyone out there know of a paper, article, or other reference 
regarding the relative response of a dosimeter or other dose measuring 
instrument when backed by the following phantom types:

ICRU Sphere

PMMA Solid Phantom 30X30X15 cm

ISO Phantom:  PMMA filled with water, above dimensions for perimeter, 
2.5mm PMMA on the front face, 10mm PMMA for the other sides.

I am trying to get a number to use for measuring deep dose H(10).  I 
have data using the solid PMMA and want to get a number to compare it 
with the other two geometries.

Thanks,

Rob
