Abstract

In the scope of the RAPSODI EU research project, a prototype detector for in-vivo dose measurements in Mammography was developed. We present and discuss first results on the system qualification, in particular on the linear dynamic range, the energy response and the radiological as well as optical transparency of the detector.
