Dosimetry in CR mammography using radiochromic film
Brazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences, 2022 To estimate the dose that a patient's mammary tissue receives during mammographic screening, radiochromic film and objects simulators made of PMMA are used. This material interacts with X-rays in a similar way to tissue. Estimating the dose absorbed by a
