Mammograms on medichrome film.
When medichrome film is vacuum packed and used in combination with a single high definition intensifying screen exposure times of 0.06-0.1 s and a skin radiation dosage 0.5 rad per exposure can be achieved. The diagnostic accuracy of the system is similar to that obtained on conventional black and white film currently used for mammography.
