Synchrotron radiation has been increasingly and extensively used for materials science, biology and medical research. For measurement of high dose from the low energy photons, tissue-equivalent dosemeters having linearity in the Gy region are required. In this study, energy and dose responses of double-layer Gafchromic film MD-55 were measured using 10-40 keV monoenergetic photons from synchrotron radiation. The result showed that the energy responses normalised at 60Co gamma rays were 0.58-0.59 at 10-20 keV, 0.66 at 30 keV and 0.72 at 40 keV in air. The linearity was confirmed to extend from 2 Gy to 100 Gy.
