          Abstract

          To evaluate the bias to the mean glandular dose (MGD) estimates introduced by the homogeneous breast models in digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) and to have an insight into the glandular dose distributions in 2D (digital mammography, DM) and 3D (DBT and breast dedicated CT, BCT) x-ray breast imaging by employing breast models with realistic glandular tissue distribution and organ silhouette.
