Assessment of mean glandular dose in mammography.
The routine assessment of patient dose in the National Health Service Breast Screening Programme is performed as part of the quality assurance protocol recommended by the Institute of Physical Sciences in Medicine. The mean glandular dose to a standard breast is deduced from measurement of the air kerma at the entrance surface of a 4 cm Perspex phantom by applying a series of conversion factors...

متن کاملEvaluation of glandular dose in mammography in the presence of breast cyst using Monte Carlo simulation
Introduction: Average glandular dose (AGD), entrance skin air kerma (ESAK) and normalized glandular dose (DgN) are the main dosimetric quantities in mammography. In this study, DgN is evaluated in the presence of breast cyst, which is a common disease among women and the influence of size, number and location of the cysts on the DgN is investigated. Materials and Meth...
متن کاملComparison Between Film-Screen and Digital Mammography for Woman Breast Cancer Screening: Mean Glandular Dose
Introduction: Most studies in mammography have only been carried out in a comparison of image quality and lesion detection in film-screen mammography (FSM) and full field digital mammography (FFDM) systems. The aim of this paper was to evaluate mean glandular dose (MGD) of patient and affecting factors by FSM and FFDM to estimate which one gives a brief radiation protection to patient. Material...
متن کاملEvaluation of the relation between breast glandular absorbed dose and radiographic quality in mammography
Background: Breast is one of the main radiological sensitive organs, hence it is important to evaluate absorbed dose to this organ especially to the glandular parts. It is the aim of this study to measure mean glandular dose and image contrast in terms of different mammographic parameters. Materials and Methods: In this study two mammography machines located at Said-al Shohada (Giotto) ...
