Normalized glandular dose (DgN) coefficients from experimental mammographic x-ray spectra.

In conclusion, polyenergetic x-ray spectrometry proved to be an applicable tool for research in dosimetry in mammography allowing spectral characterization. This approach can also be useful for investigation of the influence of x-ray spectra on glandular dose.
