Pro-Euro

Pro-Euro phantom is used for monitoring technical parameters of mammography imaging systems according to the requirements of the „European Guidelines for Quality Assurance in Mammography Screening” and IEC 61223-3-2.

It can be used to test:

• Optical density in the reference point
• Spatial resolution
• Dynamic range – image contrast
• Threshold contrast visibility
• Effective radiation field
• Film processing
• Automatic Exposure Control

Technical data:

• Dimensions: 182.5 x 245 x 45 mm
• Additional 20 mm PMMA plate
• Reference point (60 mm from the thorax side)
• Pattern for line pair resolution evaluation (from 1.5 to 20.0 LP/mm) perpendicular and parallel to the thorax side
• 10-step aluminium wedge
• 8 low contrast objects
• Markings (graduations) for assessment of the effective radiation field
• Space covered with brass for sensitometric measurements
• Area for the measuring chamber of the automatic exposure timer
