Technical Quality of Mammography in Slovenia 1995-2000
Description
Full text: In the last few years the number of mammography X-ray examinations in Slovenia has rapidly increased. As mammography is technically one of the most demanding radiographic technique, image quality critically depends on the equipment and its performance, as well as on skill of technicians who employ it. The paper presents the statistics of the most important technical parameters of the mammography systems and the results of a quality control performed in the period from 1995 to 1998. The results clearly show the increased quality of technical performance of mammography in Slovenia in the last 5 years. (author)
