Figure 8.

Normalized mean glandular dose estimations for the V3 phantom with a skin thickness of 1.5 mm and breast tissue composed of 6.4%, 17.0%, and 45.8% fibroglandular tissue (excluding skin) representing the 5th, 50th, and 95th percentiles, respectively, of breast compositions previously reported.¹⁰ Results are shown for (a) monoenergetic source photons and (b) polyenergetic x‐ray beams with 0.2 mm Cu filtration and 1.5 mm Al filtration. The pDgN_CT coefficients are estimated by spectrally weighting the DgN_CT (E) results using TASMICS_bCT‐generated spectra.
