Estimated Average Glandular Dose for 1,828 Mammography Procedures in China: A Multicenter Study

ConclusionThe mean AGD and CBT levels in our study for mammography practice in China were 1.3 mGy and 4.6 cm, respectively. AGD is influenced by manufacturer-specific variation as machine response to CBT changes and target/filter combination. The present study can provide evidence for establishing a diagnostic reference level in China.
