<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>Mammography is one of the most effective diagnostic methods for the early detection of breast cancer; however, it poses the risk of radiation exposure. To date, mammography dosimetry has been performed according to the mean glandular dose; however, the actual exposure in the breast has not been assessed. Here, we have measured dose distributions and depth doses using both radiochromic films and mammographic phantoms, and a three-dimensional intra-mammary dose assessment was conducted. The absorbed dose distribution at the surface was markedly higher on the chest wall side but lower on the nipple side. The absorbed doses in the depth direction exponentially decreased. The glandular tissue near the surface may be irradiated with an absorbed dose of 7.0 mGy or higher. Since LD-V1 could be placed inside the phantom, the absorbed dose inside the breast could also be evaluated in three dimensions.</jats:p>
