چکیده

Most breast imaging programs have replaced film-screen mammography systems with digital mammography. Other breast imaging methods, such as digital breast tomosynthesis, complement the tools available for screening and diagnosis of breast cancer. This article examines digital mammography, other digital breast imaging modalities, and the effects of these technologies on practice, quality, efficiency, and the technologist's role in patient care.

Digital mammography.

Digital mammography is an irreversible evolution which will gradually replace analog mammography. Detector technology differs among manufacturers. Expected clinical advantages are improved diagnostic performances, improved reproducibility, dose reduction, dedicated applications (CAD), archiving and telemammography. Limiting problems are at cost, reorganization of the breast imaging unit and the...

Workflow improvements for digital breast tomosynthesis: computerized generation of enhanced synthetic images

In a typical 2D mammography workflow scenario, a computer-aided detection (CAD) algorithm is used as a second reader producing marks for a radiologist to review. In the case of 3D digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT), the display of CAD detections at multiple reconstruction heights would lead to an increased image browsing and interpretation time. We propose an alternative approach in which an al...
