  • Title: A new low dose mammography technique.
    Author: Chang CH, Sibala JL, Martin NL, Riley RC.
    Journal: Rev Interam Radiol; 1977 Apr; 2(2):97-9. PubMed ID: 866902.
    Abstract:
    Reduction of radiation dosage to patients undergoing mammography is very important, especially when large-scale screening projects for early detection of breast carcinoma are considered. A new low dose mammographic technique employing Kodak XG film and Industrex F2 intensifying screen in a vacuum package has been evaluated in 533 patients. This Kodak system was found to provide excellent diagnostic quality image, and to be an acceptable technique for mammography.
