February 1999
International standard Current

Photography. Sensitometry of screen/film systems for medical radiography. Part 3 : determination of sensitometric curve shape, speed and average gradient for mammography.

This part of ISO 9236 specifies methods for determination of the sensitometric curve shape, average gradient and speed of a single sample of a screen/film/filmholder/processing system in mammography. The filmholder may be any means which ensures close screen/film contact and prevents the film from being exposed to ambient light. In particular, the filmholder may be a light-tight vacuum bag, as often used in the laboratory, or a radiographic cassette as used in mammography. NOTE — Hereafter, screen/film/filmholder combinations will be referred to as "combinations", and will be referred to as "systems" when the processing is included.

Photography. Sensitometry of screen/film systems for medical radiography. Part 3 : determination of sensitometric curve shape, speed and average gradient for mammography.

This part of ISO 9236 specifies methods for determination of the sensitometric curve shape, average gradient and

speed of a single sample of a screen/film/filmholder/processing system in mammography.

The filmholder may be any means which ensures close screen/film contact and prevents the film from being

exposed to ambient light. In particular, the filmholder may be a light-tight vacuum bag, as often used in the

laboratory, or a radiographic cassette as used in mammography.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department
To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
