ABSTRACT
As a pilot study for a national campaign to promote the use of screening mammography, the Virginia Division of the American Cancer Society conducted a breast cancer awareness project with mammography screening. An important part of the program was the development of a quality assurance program for mammography. Guidelines were established for equipment, image recorders, processing, dose, and patient positioning. A survey of information about the mammographic equipment was conducted, and the mammograms from each facility were reviewed. A total of 63 mammographic units in 56 facilities statewide were included in the month-long program during which approximately 9,000 women were screened.
