installation.
Figure 9: Template of the manual exposure table, fo fill in the exposure settings
in function of compressed thickness and breast density
For X-ray systems that do not have a read-out of the compressed breast
thickness, a variant of the manual exposure table is available, that is attached
to the X-ray system and acts as a ruler. By positioning the compression paddle,
a row is indicated in the table with the applicable exposure settings. If the
compression paddle is positioned inbetween two rows, the lower settings
should be used.
