Mammography
Mammography is an imaging method that uses low-energy X-rays to create images of the breast. It has been proven to be a reliable way to detect breast cancer early. The procedure is considered safe, as the radiation dose used in modern mammography machines is very low.
Timely detection of pathological changes in the mammary glands guarantees a complete cure in 95% of cases. A highly specialised device - a mammograph - will allow you to conduct a detailed examination using a gentle method. This is a modern X-ray diagnostic system that detects asymptomatic disease development at an early stage. The accuracy of the images is high and helps to recognise atypical tumours of very small size.
Types of mammographs
There are two types of diagnostic equipment for this purpose: analogue and digital. Analogue devices are used less and less in the world, replaced by digital ones. Each type has a number of features:- - In analogue systems, a film is used as a receiver, the image from which is described by the doctor to assess the condition of the breast. Compared to digital systems, film devices have poorer image quality and emit higher doses.
- - The digital system instantly displays a high-precision image directly on the computer, allowing the doctor to edit the image, save, print and increase the speed of patient appointments.
How to choose a mammography machine
When choosing a mammography model, it is recommended to rely on the following main criteria:- - - resolution-dependent visualisation quality; - power of the generator and tube;
- - the possibility of tomosynthesis option, for layer-by-layer reproduction of images and increase of diagnostic accuracy; - - mammography manufacturer.
