Abstract
Full-field digital mammography (FFDM) is gaining widespread clinical acceptance in the United States and has the potential to ultimately replace screen-film mammography (SFM). Since the introduction of the MQSA in 1992 by the US Congress, studies have demonstrated that, with increased attention to quality control, SFM has improved in quality across the United States. For FFDM to phase out and ultimately replace SFM, similar stringent quality control processes will be required of FFDM. The purpose of this article is to outline operational considerations during the implementation of FFDM quality control in a breast imaging facility.
