Organizational, Technical and Economic Aspects of Implementation of Mammographic Screening in Ukraine

Abstract

The paper deals with the organizational, technical and economic aspects of the implementation of mammographic screening in Ukraine. It is shown that the introduction of preventive mammography is possible only with the digital technologies of the mammograms imaging, which can reduce the cost of operation of the mammographic room, reduce the number of required medical personnel for the screening and the radiation load on the women. However, realization of the benefits of digital mammography is only possible if the correct mammograms are displaying on specialized 5-MP monitors.
