RSD Mammo/Tomo Automatic Exposure Control and Uniformity Slab
Product Description
The RSD Mammo/Tomo Automatic Exposure Control and Uniformity Slab is an essential tool for routine quality assurance of digital mammography and breast tomosynthesis systems. It enables comprehensive evaluation of imaging parameters and system performance, helping maintain high diagnostic standards.
Features:
- Automatic Exposure Control (AEC) - Perform accurate checks to optimize imaging parameters
- Geometric Distortion - Validate imaging system accuracy for undistorted, high-fidelity results
- Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) - Assess image clarity and minimize noise interference
- Contrast-to-Noise Ratio (CNR) - Ensure optimal differentiation of subtle tissue contrasts
- Homogeneity - Confirm uniform image quality across the field of view
- Z-Resolution - Evaluate depth resolution for enhanced 3D imaging performance
- High-Purity Polymethyl Methacrylate (PMMA) Material - 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
- It can also help assess system homogeneity and geometric distortion, ensuring consistency across different imaging conditions
- Standards Compliance:
- EUREF Protocol - Quality Control of the Physical and Technical Aspects of Digital Breast Tomosynthesis Systems
- Comes Standard With:
- Comprehensive product manual
- Sturdy carrying case
