Compliance of Radiation Dose and Image Quality in a Nigerian Teaching Hospital with the European Guidelines for Pediatric Screen-Film Chest Radiography
Introduction Blue light is a part of the spectrum with the highest energy content, which can reach the retina. The damage that it can cause to the retina is called photochemical or blue-light retinal injury. For the retinal injury assessment of the photochemical and aphakic retinal hazards in the wavelength range of 300-700 nm, use of effective spectral radiance limits (W.m-2.sr-1) seems to be...
متن کاملScreen-Film Mammography and Soft-Copy Full-Field Digital Mammography: Comparison in the Patients with Microcalcifications
OBJECTIVE We wanted to compare the ability of screen-film mammography (SFM) and soft-copy full-field digital mammography (s-FFDM) on two different monitors to detect and characterize microcalcifications. MATERIALS AND METHODS The images of 40 patients with microcalcifications(three patients had malignant lesion and 37 patients had benign lesion), who underwent both SFM and FFDM at an interval...
متن کاملClinical comparison of full-field digital mammography and screen-film mammography for detection of breast cancer.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this work is to compare full-field digital mammography and screen-film mammography for the detection of breast cancer in a screening population. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Full-field digital mammography was performed in addition to screen-film mammography in 6736 examinations of women 40 years old and older presenting for screening mammography at either of two institutions....
متن کاملPatient doses from screen-film and full-field digital mammography in a population-based screening programme.
The aim of this study was to compare mean glandular dose (MGD) in all full-field digital mammography (FFDM) and screen film mammography (SFM) systems used in a national mammography screening program. MGD from 31 screening units (7 FFDM and 24 SFM), based on an average of 50 women at each screening unit, representing 12 X-ray models (6 FFDM and 6 SFM) from five different manufacturers were calcu...
متن کاملA comparison of the accuracy of film-screen mammography, full-field digital mammography, and digital breast tomosynthesis.
AIM To measure the change in diagnostic accuracy of conventional film-screen mammography and full-field digital mammography (FFDM) with the addition of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) in women recalled for assessment following routine screening. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ethics approval for the study was granted. Women recalled for assessment following routine screening with screen-film mammog...
