일부지역의 전체 유방촬영장치는 205대가 설치 사용되고 있었으며 종합병원에는 36대, 병원 53대, 의원은 116대가 사용되고 있었다. 즉, 의원의 비중이 전체의 50%를 차지하고 있음을 알 수가 있었다. 영상획득방법 별에서는 필름 스크린(film screen)이 131대, 컴퓨터 방사선촬영장치(computed radipgraphy)가 67대, 디지털 방사선촬영장치(digital radiography)가 7대 순으로 나타났다. 현재까지는 주로 필름 스크린 시스템이 이용되고 있었다. target/filter의 재료는 대부분 Mo/Mo이 사용되었으며(66%), 그 다음으로는 Mo/Rh이 사용되고 있었다(25%). 초점의 크기는 소초점용은 0.1 mm, 대초점으로는 0.3 mm를 주로 사용하고 있었다.

Background: In both developed and developing countries; breast cancer is the major cancer observed in women. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of nursing and mammographic intervention on women with breast cancer between the ages of 50 and 70. Materials and Methods: A training program, which was quasi-experimental and had a pretest-protest design, was applied in Kemalpaaa district of Izmir, between October 2008 and August 2010. The target population was women between the ages of 50 and 70, who were registered in the list of 3rd Family Medicine Unit in Izmir's Kemalpasa metropolis. A total of 106 women who were in conformity with the study criteria participated in the study. Research data were collected through home visits that included face-to-face interviews; Ministry of Health education material and video films were modified and used for the training. Data analysis was performed through 82 women who were paired at the first and the second phase. Results: It was observed that although the rate of breast self examination significantly increased after the training (p=0.022), the rate of clinical breast examination (p=0.122) and mammographic screening (p=0.523) did not. Differences in the stages of change after training were found to be statistically significant (p<0.001) and the group showed a progression in the stages of change in general (46.3%). In women mean scores of breast cancer awareness (p<0.000), severity (p<0.000), health motivation (p<0.000) and perception of the benefits of mammography (p<0.000) increased significantly and mean score of perception of mammography barriers decreased significantly (p<0.000) after the training. Conclusions: After the training on breast cancer and mammography it was determined that nursing interventions provided positive progression of stages of change of women, affected health beliefs positively and significantly increased BSE incidences. However, it did not have a significant effect on CBE and mammographic screening.

한국의 유방 질환에 대한 유방촬영술의 방법은 서구의 방법과는 연령에 따라 다양하고 신중하게 시행되어야 한다. 유방암 발생율이 급속히 증가되면서 조기진단을 목적으로 유방촬영술의 검사건수가 증가되어가고 있다. 우리나라 여성의 30세 이상 60세 이하를 대상으로 유방촬영술이 내사위촬영과 상하촬영에서 유방의 두께와 압력을 측정하였다. 유방촬영술에 필요한 압력과 두께의 기초 자료를 제공하여, 선예도와 해상력이 높은 진단적 가치가 있는 영상을 만드는데 목적을 두고자 한다. 204명을 대상으로 한 연령대별의 분포에서 30대는 64명(31.4%), 40대와 50대는 70명(34.3%)이었다. 압력에서 내사위촬영과 상하촬영 모두 50대가 가장 높았고, 40대, 30대 순으로 측정되었다. 전체 평균은 내사위촬영 14 daN, 상하촬영 13.88 daN으로 내사위촬영이 조금 높았다. 두께에서는 내사위촬영과 상하촬영 모두에서 50대가 40대, 30대에 비해 두껍게 측정되었고, 전체 평균은 내사위촬영 41.46 mm, 상하촬영 39.50 mm로 내사위촬영이 상하촬영보다 두꺼웠다.

Background: Accurate measurement of breast mass size is fundamental for treatment planning. We evaluated performance of BreastLight apparatus in detection breast of masses with this in mind. Materials and Methods: From July 2011 to September 2013, a total of 500 women referred to mammography unit in Yazd, Iran for screening were recruited to this study. Performance of BreastLight in detection breast masses regard their sizeing, measured with clinical breast examination (CBE), mammography and sonography, was assessed. Sonographic and mammography examinations were performed according to breast density among women in two groups of women younger (n=105) and older (n=395) than 30 years. Size correlations were performed using Spearman rho analysis. Differences between mass size as assessed with the different methods (mammography, sonography, and clinical examination) and the BreastLight detection were analyzed using $X^2$-trend test. Results: Performance of the BreastLight in detection of lesions smaller than or equal to 1 cm assessed by CBE, mammography and sonography was 4.4%,7.7% and 12.5% and for masses larger than 4 cm was 65%, 100% and 57.1%, respectively. The performance of BreastLight in detection was significantly increased with larger masses (p<0.001). Conclusions: We conclude that clinical measurement of breast cancer size is as accurate as that from mammography or ultrasound. Accuracy can be improved by the use of a simple formula of both clinical and mammographic measurements.
