Resum
The objetive of this study was to compare the radiographic image of bone obtained with both conventional filrn-screen combination and the mammographic film-screen, and to study to exposure factors used for each combination. One conventional and two mammographic film-screen combinations were used. Radiographs were taken from skull, spine, pelvis and extremities of three groups of animals of dífferent sizes (cat and small dog, medium and large dog) with each film-screen combinations. There was not siqnificant difference between quality of radiographic image obtained with two types of mammoqraphic film-screen systems.Radiographic images obtained with mammographic technique from shoulder, carpus, elbow, stífle and tarsus had the best resolution and contrast. These results show that radiographic images from thin areas obtained with mammographic technique had major resolution and contrast than those obtained with conventional system.
