THE APPLICATION OF PENELOPE PROGRAM ON BREAST IMAGING

Abstract

Breast cancer is the second most common disease in the world and is also the most common cancer in women. Mammography method is
considered the gold standard in detecting tumors in diagnosis and treatment. In addition, tomosynthesis imaging method has been researched
that opens a new advance in breast cancer diagnosis. Therefore, mammography equipment needs to achieve high accuracy in recording the
details are extremely small size. The main content of this report is the application of simulation programs PENELOPE photon transmission via
any materials associated with the creation PENEASY in mammography images can be applied in the design of the actual device.
