In diagnostic radiology, the determination of bremsstrahlung spectrum is essential for patient absorbed dose estimation and image quality improvement. In this paper, we surveyed the X-ray emission spectra of different peak voltages 50, 70, 85, 125 and 150 kV by using MCNP5 code. Besides, the effects of filter, collimator and anode material on X-ray spectra have also been investigated. The simulation results fairly agree with experimental spectra obtained by P.T. Talla et al. (2009)

AbstractWith improvements in CT technology, the need for reliable patient-specific dosimetry increased in the recent years. The accuracy of Monte-Carlo simulations for absolute dose estimation is related to scanner specific information on the X-ray spectra of the scanner as well as the form filter geometries and compositions. In this work a mobile measurement setup is developed, which allows both to determine the X-ray spectra and equivalent form filter of a specific scanner from just one helical scan in less than 2 minutes.
