Comparative Dose of Contrast-Enhanced Spectral Mammography (CESM), Digital Mammography, and Digital Breast Tomosynthesis

摘要

OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study is to provide a more accurate estimation of the radiation dose of contrast-enhanced spectral mammography (CESM) relative to that of 2D digital mammography and tomosynthesis using phantom and patient data and an accepted dosimetry protocol that eliminates vendor-specific average glandular dose (AGD) estimates while including breast density.
