Hi Mahmoudreza

As an option, maybe you could refer to the data provided by ICRP 110 for Adult Reference Computational Phantoms, Female:

Organ - Density
Lung, left, blood - 1.060
Lung, left, tissue - 0.385
Lung, right, blood - 1.060
Lung, right, tissue - 0.385

Regards
Alex

Subject: [fluka-discuss]: which publication of ICRP has reported the lung density equal to 1.05 g/cm3


Dear FLUKA experts
During the lung tissue simulation, I encountered to 1.05 g/cm3 for lung tissue densiy in the flair material data library?
In which publication of the ICRP this value was reported? isn't it too high for lung? 0.26 g/cm3 would be a proper choise?
however, lung tumor (GTV/ITV)might have the same density as 1.05 g/cm3.
Best wishes,
