[Modification of dose distributions of ultra-hard X-radiation by scattering from inhomogeneities (author's transl)].
As a result of modified scattering, implants of all sorts like artificial joints, osteosynthesis nails, gold fillings in teeth, etc. the densities and ordinal numbers of which differ from that of soft tissue, cause a modification of the dose in the marginal zone of the tissues situated before the inhomogeneity. If, for example, an ultra-hard X-radiation is applied, dose increases of about 30% can be measured in the region lying in front of a steel plate.
