X-ray spectrometry applied for determination of linear attenuation coefficient of polymer-based samples as radiologically tissue-equivalent materials

In this work we obtained experimental linear attenuation coefficients of polymer-based samples at diagnostic imaging energy range (15-150 keV) for eleven formulations candidates for tissue-equivalent materials (TEMs). TEMs is any material that simulates a human body part or human tissue in its inter...
