Mammography devices, which play a critical role in the early diagnosis of breast cancer, have gained an indispensable place in healthcare services by providing high-resolution images. Periodic service programs applied at certain intervals are of great importance for the correct and safe operation of these devices. Thanks to service programs, the performance of the device is maintained, possible malfunctions are prevented and patient safety is guaranteed.
Since mammography systems operate with low-dose x-ray radiation, even the slightest technical deviation can directly affect both image quality and radiation dose. For this reason, it is essential that the device is regularly calibrated, its sensors are checked and its mechanical components are tested. Service programs ensure that these checks are systematically implemented.
Periodic service procedures include x-ray tube performance testing, detector level control, software updates and security sensor control. During these procedures, any possible performance loss or wear on the device is determined and x-ray spare parts are replaced if necessary. Thus, the device continues to operate with high accuracy in accordance with the manufacturer's standard.
The fact that mammography devices are often used in the same center with imaging systems such as computerized tomography, tomography, MRI or open MRI machines also makes technical compatibility between these systems mandatory. In order to ensure this compatibility, the service periods of each device should be carefully planned and cross-interactions should be taken into account.
Another important element in service programs is informing device users. Operator errors can cause serious performance losses in devices. For this reason, short user information sessions should also be performed during periodic service visits. Thanks to these sessions, the device works more efficiently in terms of both technique and usage.
