Digital mammography

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 2004
Despite its technical advantages, early clinical trials comparing digital mammography with film mammography for screening have been somewhat disappointing. Digital mammography,however, is in its infancy and can be expected to improve more rapidly than film mammography. Some areas of improvement being observed now include the development of new detector

Digital Mammography

Contemporary Diagnostic Radiology, 1998
In digital mammography, the processes of image acquisition, display, and storage are separated, which allows optimization of each. Radiation transmitted through the breast is absorbed by an electronic detector, the response of which is faithful over a wide range of intensities.

[Digital mammography].

Der Radiologe, 2002
Digital mammography, using novel detector technology, has been shown to be at least as sensitive as screen-film mammography for detecting early breast cancer. However, there are barriers to overcome, particularly in soft-copy display, workstation design, and equipment cost.

Perspective on digital mammography

Seminars in Roentgenology, 2001
Digital mammography, particularly through its advanced applications, holds great promise for improved diagnostic accuracy, but the display of the images is not ideal at present. Clinical softcopy workstations are somewhat unwieldy to use, and image processing has not yet been optimized for each machine or for each clinical task.

Update on Digital Mammography

Breast Disease, 2001
On January 28, 2000, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the first full-field digital mammography unit for clinical use. The approval occurred approximately ten years after a National Cancer Institute (NCI) expert panel determined that, of all emergent technologies, digital mammography held the greatest potential for improving breast ...
