AP and PA thorax radiographs: dose evaluation using the FAX phantom
Considering that the risks associated with ionising radiation are dependent on the characteristics of the exposed individual and that the structures and sizes of the human body vary considerably as a function of gender, efforts must be made in order to study the effective and absorbed doses in thoracic radiological examinations, taking into account the special features of the female anatomy. In ...

Dose and risk evaluation in thoracic radiology using male and female voxel phantoms
Thoracic radiology is of great concern because of its routine nature. It is important to avoid conditions where the amount of radiation used is more than that needed for the procedure. The purpose of this work is to use the Monte Carlo code MCNPX and the Female Adult voxel (FAX) and Male Adult voxel (MAX) phantoms to investigate how the effective doses, absorbed doses to organs and risk of cancer ...
