This document describes an initial calibration. Therefore, it de-
scribes cases in which a Mammomat system is equipped with a
newly mounted compression unit, and therefore either the relevant
data from another (e.g. the formerly mounted) compression unit
stored in the system or no meaningful compression calibration
data stored in the system.
