Inter comparison between different breast models for dosimetry can be useful for estimating more accurate MGD values for population-based dosimetry, for exploring the use of 1D gaussian distribution for breast dosimetry, and for understanding the dose distributions inside the fibroglandular tissues, which could be a novel source of information for risk estimations.
