LEARNING OBJECTIVES

1) Understand the history and development of mammographic imaging equipment. 2) Understand the impact of equipment development on testing protocols. 3) Understand the impact of equipment development on regulation.

ABSTRACT

Mammographic imaging has undergone tremendous change since its inception. Rapid development from screen-film imaging to nearly universal acceptance of digital imaging has required a shift in testing methodology. This talk will briefly introduce the developments that have taken place and discuss the impact that this development has had on testing and regulation.
