  • X-ray mammography apparatus with radiation dose-reducing filter
    Publication number: 20050243970
    Abstract: An x-ray apparatus for mammography, with an x-ray tube having a tungsten, a filter downstream in the beam direction of the x-ray tube and a detector downstream from the filter, the detector being produced from a semiconductor material. To improve the quality of mammographic x-ray exposures as well as to simultaneously reduce the radiation dose, the filter is produced from a filter material having a K-absorption edge in the range between 3.8 keV and 7.3 keV.
