Description

Quality control parameters of a direct digital mammography machine were evaluated, with target/filter combinations of W/Rh and W/Ag, through tests and reference standards. This study is justified by the extreme importance of optimizing exposures in the breasts of patients, ensuring image quality and thus enabling a safe diagnosis by the physician
