This study extends the ‘zero scan’ method for CT imaging of polymer gel dosimeters to include multislice acquisitions. Multislice images consisting 24 slices 1.2 mm thickness were acquired an irradiated dosimeter and processed with zero scan technique. The results demonstrate that scan‐based readout can be successfully applied generate a three‐dimensional image field. Compared raw images, figures cross‐gel profiles demonstrated reduced noise clear visibility penumbral region. Moreover, these improved further highlight suitability this in volumetric reconstruction data acquisition per slice. work shows 3D volumes X‐ray CT. PACS number: 87.57.Q‐, 87.57.nf, 87.55.‐x
