Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely: The Monte Carlo code PENELOPE version 2014 and its software package PenEasy have been employed to closely simulate a commercial mammography system: Selenia Dimensions system Hologic, Bedford, Mass for dosimetric study. Normalized glandular dose DgN was derived for specific filter combinations including tungsten/aluminum W/Al, tungsten/rhodium W/Rh and tungsten/silver W/Ag for a range of clinically used voltages kV. Breast models with thickness 2i¾?cm, 4.5i¾?cm and 8i¾?cm and respective glandularity 100i¾?%, 50i¾?% and 0.1i¾?% re included in the simulations. Derived DgN values re in good agreement with ll-accepted published values, with mean differences of 1.30i¾?%, 2.17i¾?% and 0.17i¾?% for the W/Al, W/Rh and W/Ag anode/filter combinations, respectively. In the next phase of the study, this validated model will be modified to perform patient-specific dosimetry with an improved breast model and more realistic simulation of commercial mammography systems.
