FDA Eliminates Printer Requirement for FFDM

Good news for all mamm techs and physicists! No more printers, printer QC, or buying film only to perform printer QC. Finally after many years of having to maintain a mammo printer for no purpose other than to do QC on the printer, the FDA has eliminated the requirement. You can now shut down your printers and sell them on Ebay! But if you do keep your printer running so you can print any kind of mammo film, you must continue performing QC.
