Journal ArticleDOI
Microbeam radiation therapy.
TL;DR: It is proposed to carry out radiotherapy and radiosurgery for brain lesions by crossfiring an array of parallel, closely spaced microbeams of synchrotron-generated x rays several times through an i-modelling system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of anode/filter material and tube potential on contrast, signal-to-noise ratio and average absorbed dose in mammography: a Monte Carlo study.

TL;DR: It is concluded that for screen-film mammography, molybdenum/molyb denum is the spectrum of choice for all but the thickest or most glandular breasts and tungsten/rhodium or rhodium/aluminium spectra provide the lowest doses at greater thicknesses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Breast dosimetry using high-resolution voxel phantoms.
David R. Dance,Roger Hunt,Predrag R. Bakic,Andrew D. A. Maidment,Michael Sandborg,Gustaf Ullman,G. Alm Carlsson +6 more
TL;DR: A computer model of X-ray mammography has been developed, which uses quasi-realistic high-resolution voxel phantoms to simulate the breast and values differed from standard tabulations used for breast dosimetry by up to 43%, because of the different spatial distribution of glandular tissue within the breast.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Monte Carlo program for the calculation of contrast, noise and absorbed dose in diagnostic radiology.
TL;DR: A Monte Carlo computer program has been developed for the simulation ofX-ray photon transport in diagnostic X-ray examinations to study and optimise the design of anti-scatter grids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of clinical and physical measures of image quality in chest and pelvis computed radiography at different tube voltages
TL;DR: A positive correlation between clinical and physical measures of image quality was found, indicating superior performance if lower tube voltages are employed in both chest PA and pelvis AP examinations.
