A series of liquid solutions and gels simulating muscle tissue, blood, brain, kidney, liver, thyroid, average breast, total soft tissue and total skeleton is described. Most of them have the same elemental composition (within 0·5% by weight) and the same density as the corresponding real tissues. Consequently, they are useful for dosimetric measurements with all radiation modalities. The elemental composition and detailed radiation characteristics of the new tissue substitutes are presented.
