Abstract

A mammography system and a method for imaging at least part of a breast with the mammography system are disclosed. The method includes: obtaining pre-exposure images respectively corresponding to a plurality of phantoms by performing pre-exposure for each of the plurality of phantoms with a respective predetermined dosage, each phantom having its respective compression thickness and component composition; determining a relationship among a target grayscale, the compression thickness and the component composition by performing de-scattering processing on each pre-exposure image based on the compression thickness and the component composition of the phantom corresponding to the pre-exposure image; determining a target dosage for a target breast based on a compression thickness and a component composition of the target breast, and the relationship; and acquiring a main exposure image by performing exposure for the target breast based on the target dosage.
