AB  - We aimed to develop a software for facilitating absorbed dose per pixel (pixel 
      dose) calculation using a size-specific dose estimate (SSDE). We calculated the 
      pixel dose at nine equal points inserted into the radiophotoluminescence glass 
      dosemeter (RPLD) and compared the pixel dose with the measured doses using RPLD. 
      With this method, the relative errors of average pixel dose was -0.1% for adults 
      and 2.86, 3.36 and 1.17% for those aged 10, 5 and 1 years without tube current 
      modulation, respectively. In contrast, the relative error of SSDE was 17.37% for 
      adults and 20.38, 20.73 and 19.20% for those aged 10, 5 and 1 years, 
      respectively. In other words, the pixel dose was almost equal to the measured 
      doses. Therefore, our software can be useful for determining arbitrary point.
