Sensitivity Analysis

“If A80/G20 breast is representative of the average

breast cancer patient then our A70/G30 breast

results indicate that the compositional uncertainty

and the use of breast density from CT data translate

into

second order effects

[≈

±

10%] compared to

effect of going from water to average breast tissue

[≈30%]”
