heal.abstract	Y2O2S:Eu laboratory prepared screens were evaluated as mammographic image receptors and were compared to similarly prepared screens of Gd2O2S:Tb and Y2O2S:Tb phosphor materials, often used in X-ray imaging detectors. The evaluation was performed by determining the Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) and the spatial frequency dependent Detective Quantum Efficiency (DQE). Y2O2S:Eu exhibited higher DQE values at low frequencies and given its good spectral matching with digital optical detectors, it may be appropriate for use in X-ray digital mammography.	en
