Quality control in mammography is a very important element. One of the parameters indicating the appropriate image quality is the threshold image contrast. The CDMAM phantom is used to measure this parameter. It is currently available in two versions 3.4 and 4.0. The aim of this work is to compare the threshold image contrast readings obtained with the CDMAM 3.4 and CDMAM 4.0 phantoms. In the measurements, 9 CDMAM 4.0 phantoms were used to check the difference in indications of individual copies. The phantom whose readings were closest to the average of all readings was used for comparative measurements with the CDMAM 3.4 phantom. Measurements were made on 40 mammography devices. The obtained images were read with the software provided by the phantom manufacturer and the CDMAM Analysis v2.3.0 (NCCPM) software. The average percentage difference between the minimum and maximum values indicated by the CDMAM 4.0 phantoms was 10.09%. Using the CDMAM Analysis v2.3.0 (NCCPM) software, the average difference in readings between the CDMAM 3.4 and CDMAM 4.0 phantoms is 7.93%, and when using the software provided by the phantom manufacturer, it is as much as 60.15%. The obtained results of the threshold image contrast are affected by the type of software used for reading and the accuracy of the execution of individual elements of the phantom. It is recommended to use CDMAM Analysis v2.3.0 (NCCPM) software or the latest software provided by the phantom manufacturer to read the phantom images.
