Pro-Euro is a quality assurance phantom specifically designed for use in mammography systems, in line with the requirements of the European Commission's European Guidelines for Quality Assurance in Mammography Screening and the IEC 61223-3-2 standard.
It is used to evaluate critical performance parameters in mammography equipment, including optical density, spatial resolution, contrast dynamics, detection threshold, radiation field, and film processing.

Key features and benefits

• Contains line pair patterns (from approximately 1.5 to 20 lp/mm) both parallel and perpendicular to the chest plate — providing clear assessment of spatial resolution.

• Includes 10-step aluminum wedge and 8 low-contrast objects to test contrast dynamics and detection limit for small objects.

• Features markings for effective X-ray field and area for sensitometric measurement (film processing) — making it a comprehensive QA tool.

• CE certified and designed to meet the requirements of both European guidelines and relevant standards.

Technical specifications

• External dimensions: approx. 182.5 × 245 × 45 mm .

• Regular additional plate: 20 mm PMMA (for extra filtering/attenuation).

• Reference point placed 60 mm from the "thorax side".

• Line pair pattern: 1.5 → 20 lp/mm.

• Low contrast material: 10-step aluminum wedge and 8 low contrast objects.

Areas of application

• ACCREDITATION and quality assurance of mammography systems according to European guidelines and standards.

• Maintenance and service intervals where visual inspection and documentation of image quality is required.

• Film and digital mammography where evaluation of film processing, automatic exposure and beam area is part of the QA program.
