5. Additional Information
5-1. Profile of the Mammography Customer
The majority of mammography customers, especially the first group of 8600 users, will definitely fit
the following profile. It is important for the field engineer to understand that most mammography
centers depend on high uptime and little downtime, and productivity is a key to success, especially for
screening clinics. Diagnostic centers need to see the films before the patient leaves. Most of the
users (at the beginning) will want to print images, as these are easier to compare with past
mammograms. (Comparison with previous films is common practice in mammography, and most
radiologists will not report the case if previous films are not available.) Customers are used to a fast
response time for processing and for repair of equipment breakdowns. (Most are used to schedule
PMs on x-ray equipment.) Under MQSA (Mammography Quality Standards Act), facilities cannot
process mammograms if the processor is out of control, and customers want same day service. We
are sure they will treat the 8600 similarly and demand same day service.
In screening, the radiologist can review up to 800 films at one sitting. Artifacts of any kind tend to
interfere with the ability to quickly interpret mammograms. See new User Cleaning (paragraph 5-6)
and PM (paragraph 5-7) procedures. Screening countries, and US with MQSA, are very focused on
image quality, and tend to be quality control fanatics.
