In 2006 the fourth edition of the European Guidelines for Breast Cancer Screening and Diagnosis was published by the European Commission Due to the fast developments in the field of digital mammography and the experience with digital mammography systems over the past years a supplement to the technical quality control procedures proved necessary This paper describes important changes compared to the Guidelines and their rationale Testing methods which are new or have changed include: the size of the standard region of interest (ROI), the thickness compensation measurement, noise evaluation, threshold contrast visibility, an AEC measurement which simulates local dense area A paragraph on evaluation of image processing has been added With these changes European quality control procedures are again up-to-date with current knowledge.
