Figure 6
The effect of taking into account X-ray fluorescence escape on the time taken to reach 30 MGy, the experimental dose limit, can clearly be seen above the iron K-edge (7.11 keV) for holoferritin. The new treatment used by RADDOSE shows that the absorbed dose was previously overestimated by 13% (at 13.2 keV) if fluorescence was not taken into account. |
