Validation of Monte Carlo simulation of mammography with TLD measurement and depth dose calculation with a detailed breast model
Mean glandular dose (MGD) is not only determined by the compressed breast thickness (CBT) and the glandular content, but also by the distribution of glandular tissues in breast. Depth dose inside the breast in mammography has been widely concerned as glandular dose decreases rapidly with increasing...
