Digital mammography is a system in which the film is replaced by detectors that convert the X-ray into an electrical signal. The terms \u201cCR\u201d and \u201cDR\u201d are used to differentiate the types of detectors, with \u201cCR\u201d being synonymous with \u201cComputerized Radiography\u201d and \u201cDR\u201d with \u201cDigital Radiography\u201d. The CR system uses a photostimulable detector, which stores the latent image, which is subsequently processed by a laser system. This can easily be adapted to the conventional screen-film system. The DR system, on the other hand, immediately reads the X-ray transmitted after exposure to the detector.<\/p>\n
However, in the publication of the \u201cPRATICE GUIDELINE FOR DIGITAL RADIOGRAPHY\u201d, by the American College of Radiology, the two systems are treated as \u201cDigital Mammography\u201d. In the FDA publication, referring to the quality program (MQSA), the CR system is considered a subtype of digital mammography, being called CRMS (Computed Radiography Mammography), while the DR system is called FFDM (Full Field Digital Mammograpy). .<\/p>\n
Thus, the joint mammography committee of CBR, FEBRASGO and SBM recommends that both systems can be called Digital Mammography, and should be paid in the same way.<\/p>\n
