Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

A survey of the radiation exposure during xeroradiography of the breast for normal clinical exposures is presented. Average values obtained from the measurements made on a number of patients are presented and compared with measurements made by other workers. An estimate of the radiation dose received by the breast during the clinical exposures is also made and the parameters affecting the doses are discussed.
