Monte Carlo derivation of filtered tungsten anode X-ray spectra for dose computation in digital mammography

OBJECTIVE: Derive filtered tungsten X-ray spectra used in digital mammography systems by means of Monte Carlo simulations. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Filtered spectra for rhodium filter were obtained for tube potentials between 26 and 32 kV. The half-value layer (HVL) of simulated filtered spectra were...
