Checking and recording for the DHHS area of application
In the area of application of the DHHS regulations, maintenance measurements must be

Sections
•
Required labels.
•
Radiation ON indicators.
•
Manual termination of exposure.
•
Checking the maximum adjustable mAs with the following kV-values.
•
Filters in beam limiting device (BLD).
•
Reproducibility.
•
kVp-accuracy.
•

•
Automatic exposure control (AEC).
•
Coincidence of radiation field/image receptor.
•

Shut-down of motor-driven compression movement.
The result must be recorded in "Measurement certificate" RX B7-120.037...
Some of the values to be determined can be taken from the acceptance test certificate.
The radiation-field limitation is set at the factory and recorded in the acceptance test cer-
tificate.
If the measurements to be made concerning the radiation-field limitation are within the
tolerances stated in these instructions, this confirms that the settings made at the factory
have not changed.
Note on delivery state
The MAMMOMAT 300 has been tested and adjusted at the factory, and should therefore
be ready for operation after completion of the installation.
