Mammo/Tomo AEC & Uniformity Slabs

QUALITY ASSURANCE FOR MAMMOGRAPHY AND TOMOSYNTHESIS SYSTEMS

The Mammo/Tomo AEC & Uniformity Slabs are an essential tool for routine quality assurance of digital mammography and breast tomosynthesis systems. Designed to comply with the EUREF Protocol for the Quality Control of the Physical and Technical Aspects of Digital Breast Tomosynthesis Systems, it ensures reliable and consistent performance.

Manufactured from high-purity PMMA, this phantom is built for precision and durability in demanding clinical environments.

 

Plate with Embedded Spheres:

  • Used for testing Z-resolution in tomosynthesis systems
  • Embedded spheres allow for the evaluation of depth resolution and system reconstruction accuracy in 3D imaging

Plate with Embedded Aluminum Foil:

  • Used to assess contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)
  • High-purity (99.9%) aluminum foil serves as a contrast element to evaluate the system’s ability to differentiate between tissues of varying densities

Plain Plates:

  • Used to simulate varying breast thicknesses for testing Automatic Exposure Control (AEC) accuracy and imaging performance
  • Can also help assess system homogeneity and geometric distortion, ensuring consistency across different imaging conditions

RSD’s Mammo/Tomo AEC & Uniformity Slabs are a critical component for maintaining high diagnostic standards, enabling comprehensive evaluation of imaging parameters and system performance in digital mammography and tomosynthesis.
