Abstract
This study was designed the band material in order to reduce the exposure pressure of the breast and the material was measured of Radiolucent and radiation properties with a radiation materials of PC, PMMA, Carbon. Also the image quality by image analysis to obtain the following results are below: Unfors Xi dosimetry using radiation transmittance when the results of 8.353mGy is measured after removal of the cuff, the PC 6.308mGy, PMMA 6.223mGy, Carbon 7.218mGy were measured respectively. Semi-layer PC 0.375mmAl, PMMA 0.370mmAl, with Carbon 0.360mmAl Carbon, PC, PMMA was higher radiation properties and transparency in order. InLight / OSL NanoDotTM dosimeter was used in the cuff and then removed by placing the dosimeter measured results center on 1.143mGy, at the edge 12.56mGy, on the central PC 8.990mGy, at the edge 10.291mGy, PMMA center on 8.391mGy, the edge 9.654mGy, on Carbon center 9.581mGy, 11.313 mGy were measured at the edge of Carbon, PC, PMMA showed a high permeability in order. Image Pixel average J is then removed from the cuff 976.655, PC 831.032, PMMA 819.069, Carbon 897.118 Carbon, PC, PMMA was measured by high order.
