A mouse has a thickness of approximately 20mm. Assume the mouse is completely composed of the ICRU4 tissue material that has a density of 1g/cm3. At 20keV, the mouse received a skin entry or surface dose of 5mGy. What would be the number of photons per cm2 incident on the mouse? the total dose that the tissue receives through the entire 20mm thickness. the skin or surface dose at the exit of the animal? Note the ICRU4 :
