What's the difference between a digital breast enhancement machine and an analog breast enhancement machine? What are the advantages and disadvantages?

Mammography machine-the full name is "mammography machine" or "mammography machine".

Since the breast enhancement machine is a camera, as the name implies, it is used to take pictures, so you can also regard it as a special "camera".

Since it is a camera, it is easy to understand. Cameras are divided into:

1, ordinary camera (film or film is used to shoot images)

2. Digital camera ("digital photography" realized by electronic technology)

The breast simulator is an ordinary mammography camera. It puts the film cassette directly under the breast for exposure and shooting, and then takes the filmed film to a darkroom, where it is developed and fixed with chemicals, and finally gets an image.

Digital breast machine is to fix the image detector under the breast, see the image on the computer screen connected to it immediately after exposure shooting, and then print out the image film through the laser printer.

The main differences between digital breast machine and analog breast machine are as follows:

The imaging process of simulated breast machine is complicated, the efficiency is low and the image quality is difficult to control. In addition, darkroom operation is needed, and the developing and fixing liquid pollutes the environment.

The digital breast machine has the advantages of simple operation, image post-processing, high efficiency, clear room operation, cleanliness and environmental protection, and digital images can realize remote transmission (pacs) and remote diagnosis.

Of course, the simulated breast enhancement machine can also be digitized in one way: equipped with cr equipment with breast enhancement function. Note that it must be "cr with breast function", and ordinary cr equipment cannot be used for breast imaging. This kind of breast cr equipment, imported products are expensive, but it has been produced in China in recent years. I have seen a domestic breast cr, which seems to be a brand of Macaulay in Shenzhen, and the image is no worse than that of imported ones.

I hope it helps you.
