Question:
The spectrum of X-ray energies changes as the X-rays pass through tissue due to the energy dependence of the linear attenuation coefficient: this is a phenomenon known as beam hardening. The typical energy distribution of the beam from the X-ray source is shown in Figure 2.6 above. Sketch the energy spectrum after the beam has passed through the body.
