Abstract
The quality control items of mammography devices in South Korea do not include the linearity, which is required by international standards. The linearity is a requirement for the adjustment of radiation dose and radiation quality. This study tested the linearity, which was suitable for the IEC 60601-2-45 standard, of the 5 mammography devices. All showed adequate results. Consistent measurement management is required for more developed quality control in the future.
