Low dosage mammograms available 1 recently arrived in Germany and i m still unfamiliar with what medical facilities and services Are Avail Able. In severe months 1 will need to have a Mammo Gram to continue monitoring a breast condition. Many radiology departments in the United states Are using the new Low dosage mammography machines which use the lowest amount of radiation for the procedure. Physician caution against using radiology machines used Tor the usual praying of fractures etc., for mammograms. The Low dosage machines Are considered much safer for mammograms and i would like mine to be done with one. The 97th general Hospital has stated it does not have such a machine. Is there one available to the . Military in Germany if not 1 would be willing to pay to have the proce Dure done on the German Economy. How could i find such a Hospital with the proper equipment i m sure All feel the less unnecessary exposure to radiation the better. Name withheld Darmstadt Germany editor s note we received two responses to this letter. The drat is from it col. Jacqueline Morgan Chiet clinical Medicine i Olsfon he Safe com Mand surgeon s office Low dosage  in available at Wiesbaden air Force regional medical Center. A physician refer rat it necessary to obtain this test Yon can obtain an appointment with a physician it Wiesbaden by calling Adtoon 339-3036 or civilian 06121-82-3034 Fleak let the appointment clerk know that Yon need the appointment for referral la obtain a routine no Vino Gram. Patients with breast masses that Are highly suspicions of cancer Art obviously Given fifth priority i scheduling. Our second reply is from col John Parker Surgi Cal consultant 7th medical coins thank you very much for your letter. Your letter gives me an Opportunity to not Only address your Core question but to make Tome general Tommy Nix boat mammography within 7lh medical come. When Nunn Graphy was initially developed the radiation required to expose the photographic plate which produced the no mammon no was consider ably higher than the radiation dose that ii require in to expose the newer dim today. The newer films on highly sensitive and Are exposed by extremely Low Levels of radiation. It is interesting to note that the Xera Mamm Grani of the past was much easier to read than the current mammograms produced by Low dose radiation. However the accuracy of the mammon in Hai not been jeopardized. The medic facilities within 7th medical come Al have the capability for dedicated Nuuanu a Phy to inf Low dose techniques. The exception to this i toe Ber Lin Middac when it i Cost off the to contract Icse procedures on the local Economy. Jut recently 4 mass Purchase of dedicated mammon trophy unit was made. These units an in healer and being distributed to our centers now. Women who Are being allowed by serial Mammo Graphy should of claw that it is extremely important to maintain copies of their previous Mun Mogami. When radiologist b Reading a Manu Ograin change can be the most important indication of a problem. I highly recommend that when a woman moves from facility to facility she ensures that her Mamm grims Are either in her Possession or mailed la her receiving of Tali to. Each year the technology of producing highly Sensi Tive photographic plate which can be exposed by extremely Low Levels of radiation continues. Yon can reassured thai the is. Army medical department and its procurement agencies will stay abreast of the rapidly moving technology in this area. Writer offers safety tips for pedestrians i d like to bring something to the attention of any one who walks anywhere after Diuk. The other night about 8 00 1 was driving on Ramstein a when i suddenly saw something White close to the ground. I thought it was a cat and hit my brakes. As the White object came into my headlight Range 1 saw that it was three Leen age boys in very dark clothing with one of them wearing White Tennis shoes. They were not in the lighted crosswalk and were casually slotting across the Street. I shudder to think what would have Hai night. I happened if the Road had been icy that most people assume that because they can see the car approaching that the car can see them. Most head lights Only Light an area about 30 to 50 feet in front of he car on Tew beams. Everything past that distance is is a Black Wall. The pedestrian can see the headlights approaching a mile away but the Driver won t see toe pedestrian until his headlights reach him. If the Driver u going fast the roads Are icy or he s not paying careful attention Hewill not have enough time to Slop. If the person is wearing dark clothing forget it. It absolutely amazes me hat we Don t read about people being hit by cars All the time on Ramstein a. If the Speed limits were not As slow As they Are i m certain that we would. So Many people Don t use their Heads when they re walking along streets with no sidewalks through parking lots or crossing streets Large or Small. I commend those conscientious joggers that i see who Wear reflector Bells or vests. They know that the responsibility for their safety is in their hands not everyone else s. A few things that everyone should think about each and every time they Are out walking anywhere after dusk Are stay on sidewalks. If none is available keep two 10 three feel from the Edge of the Road so shoulder buggers will my you Loo. Cross in lighted crosswalks whenever possible. Otherwise remember you Are invisible to the Driver. Make sure there is plenty of Lime to gel across. If you have to Racis the traffic you in crease the likelihood of a mishap especially if you trip and fall. Select Light coloured clothing for the evening or any time your feet arc your Only Mode of transportation. Those who frequently jog after dark should gel with their commanders who have authorization to Issue reflective Bells or vests to you even though you Don t use them on the Job. Flight line workers should use the reflector belts from their held jackets when jogging. Change the Altitude that because you can see the car the Driver can see  it will take a conscious Effort to do so but it is won it to unsure your own safety. Staff sgt .
