conclusion by comparing the results, we saw that w/rh anode/filter combination is the best choice in breast mammography imaging because of the lowest delivered dose in comparison with w/ag and rh/al. moreover, breast thickness and g value have significant effects on mgd. objectives the aim of this study was to determine the average absorbed dose of x-ray radiation in the glandular tissue of the...

The radiation risk in mammography is traditionally evaluated using the average glandular dose. This quantity for the average breast has proven to be useful for population statistics and to compare exposure techniques and systems. However it is not indicating the individual radiation risk based on the individual glandular amount and distribution. Simulations of exposures were performed for six a...

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) and shah...

OBJECTIVE: To compare data regarding dosimetry and photons fluence in different breast phantoms, discussing constancy tests and dosimetry applied to mammography. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Different homogeneous breast phantoms and one anthropomorphic voxel phantom were developed for collection of data regarding total absorbed dose in the phantom, absorbed dose in the glandular tissue material-equiv...
