Pro-MAM AEC PMMA consists of acrylic (PMMA) plates designed to control and evaluate the AEC (Automated Exposure Control) function of mammography systems. The plates in the kit provide repeatable and accurate measurement of exposure control at different attenuation levels – an important part of quality control programs in mammography.

Key features and benefits

• Contains multiple PMMA material plates with different thicknesses to simulate different tissue attenuation levels.

• Elegant and simple solution for AEC testing – allows for control of the exposure system response under compression-like conditions without a complex test setup.

• Available in two sizes (including 240 × 180 mm and 240 × 300 mm) as well as high-precision versions with thickness tolerances down to approximately 0.05 mm.

• Certified according to standard IEC 61223‑3‑2 and CE marked – ensures that the product meets mammography QA requirements.

Technical specifications

• Dimensions: 240 × 180 mm (model 03‑201/03‑203) and 240 × 300 mm (model 03‑204/03‑205).

• Thicknesses: 7 plates of 10 mm and 2 plates of 5 mm (standard version).

• High precision version has thickness tolerance of approximately 0.05 mm.

• Material: Transparent PMMA.

• Optionally available with a carrying case.

Areas of application

• Routine testing of AEC function in mammography units – ensures that the system adjusts exposure correctly for tissue thickness/attenuation.

• Quality assurance and maintenance – suitable for technical control routines in radiology departments.

• Documentation for accreditation – especially useful for mammography installations that must follow QA protocols and standards.
