Abstract:In this study, breast phantoms were fabricated by emulating glandular and adipose tissues separately using a three-dimensional (3D) printer. In addition, direct and quantitative glandular dose evaluations were performed. A quantitative method was developed to evaluate the glandular and adipose tissues separately when performing glandular dose evaluations. The variables used for glandular dose evaluation were breast thickness, glandular tissue ratio, and additional filter materials. The values obtained using a … Show more
