MEDICAL AND TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS FOR MEDICAL MONITORS FOR MAMMOGRAPHY RESEARCH

https://doi.org/10.22328/2079-5343-2020-11-2-119-122

Abstract

Purpose: determination of technical characteristics when choosing medical viewing monitors, affecting the quality of the viewed image.

Materials and methods: Analysis of current regulatory documents, domestic and world scientific  literature, regulatory parameters for medical viewing monitors.

Results and discussions: In Russian and foreign publications, there are few articles on the assessment and analysis of medical monitors, and there are no regulatory documents. According to the technical documentation of medical viewing monitors presented in Russia, the basic requirements for medical  viewing monitors that are used when working on modern digital mammography systems have been  formed. The article analyzes the main parameters of monitors that affect the quality of the visualized image, also highlights the main parameters of digital detectors installed on mammographs and gives recommendations for choosing a medical monitor that meets the parameters of the mammograph. The main parameters for monitors are highlighted, such as resolution, brightness to contrast ratio, response time, which, if properly correlated, significantly improve the quality of work of a radiologist.

Conclusions. Medical viewing monitors should meet the physico-technical parameters of the installed mammograph; to improve the quality of the work of radiologists involved in the diagnosis of mammary glands within the framework of one health care facility, it is advisable to choose medical viewing  monitors of one manufacturer; maintenance of medical viewing monitors should be performed at least twice a year.
