The results obtained suggest that different precautionary measures should be taken depending on the chosen geometric projection, and that the application of higher voltages to the X-ray tube appeared as an alternative to reduce the doses and the risk of cancer incidence.Keywords: thorax radiographs, Monte Carlo simulation, female adult voxel ...
Finally, in the case of source specification, only the focus of the X-ray tube was modelled, i.e., as a standard MCNP point source that emits a cone of photon. The X-ray spectra to be used in the MCNP simulations were generated with spectrum generating software. ...
The results suggest that different precautionary measures should be taken depending on the chosen geometric projection and that the application of higher voltages to the X-ray tube appears to be an alternative to reduce the effective and absorbed doses.Keywords: thorax radiographs, Monte Carlo simulation, female adult voxel phantom, effective ...
