Popis: Of this study, it was found that there were 250 mammographic u nits in total installed and used in the areas for this study, and 36 units were used in general hospitals, 53 units in hospitals and 116 units in clinics. That is, the units in clinics accounted for 50% out of the whole uni ts. As for the image acquisition method, it was found there were 131 units using F/S, 67 units using CR and 7 u nits using DR respectively. At present, F/S system was mainly used in the areas. As for the materials of ta rget/filter, it was found that Mo/Mo was mostly used (66%), followed by Mo/Rh (25%). As for the size of focus, both 0.1 mm for small focus and 0.3 mm for large focus were mainly used for the units Key words : Mammographic unit, Average glandular dose, Image acquisition method, target/filter 요약 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.
