## Abstract A Monte Carlo simulation was adapted to specify a skin model with pigmented epidermis, dermis with low baseline blood content, and vessels of a vascular lesion with an average added blood volume fraction of 5%. In the study, the lesion vessel diameters were increased and the number of l

โฆ Synopsis
A computer program is described which facilitates the rapid assessment of a number of physical parameters affecting the image formation of small blood vessels. These parameters are: the dimensions of the focus, the intensity distribution of the emitted photons over the focus area, the energy spectrum of the emitted photons, the attenuation by the contrast agent used, and the geometry of the exposure. Independently measured or calculated values of the above parameters are used in the program. The output of these values is a map of the intensity distribution of X rays in the image plane during a simulated exposure of a small blood vessel.
