Dose measurements were conducted in a phantom which simulates breast tissue and in another phantom which simulates a breast containing a silicone prosthesis. No detectable difference was found when the irradiations were carried out with tangential beams of 60Co radiation. The degree of backscatter and absorption of radiation by the prosthesis and phantom were also similar. A slight decrease in dose of approximately 8% was found at the interface between the prosthesis and muscle-equivalent material.
剂量测量是在模拟乳腺组织的体模以及模拟含有硅酮假体的乳腺的另一个体模中进行的。当使用60Co辐射的切线束进行照射时，未发现可检测到的差异。假体和体模对辐射的反向散射和吸收程度也相似。在假体与肌肉等效材料的界面处发现剂量略有下降，约为8%。
