  2. X-rays for medical imaging • Minimizing the radiation dose is an important issue – especially in mammography • low absorption contrast • => large dose required to obtain sufficiently good S/N • low applied photon energy (Mo anodes) • screening submits a large number of healthy patients to radiation dose C.
