Investigation of pediatric backscatter factor with an anthropomorphic phantom

2023-10-18

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Entrance surface dose (ESD) is used to establish diagnostic reference levels (DRLs), which require a backscatter factor (BSF) for calculation. However, as no studies on pediatric BSF exist, adult BSF is currently used in pediatric ESD calculations. Objective The aim of this study was to derive a BSF using a pediatric phantom and conduct a comparison with BSFs derived from a...
