Mammography

Ca-A Cancer Journal for Clinicians, 1989
Mammography is the tool of choice for evaluation of the breast. It is the immediate obligation of the obstetrician-gynecologist to increase the utilization of screening mammography. It is the immediate obligation of the radiologist to reduce the cost of mammography and to increase understanding of the postlumpectomy, postradiation therapy mammogram.

Mammography

Current Opinion in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2001
Breast cancer is the most common female malignancy in the USA and second only to lung malignancy in cancer mortality. The only screening modality that effectively detects early breast cancer and decreases mortality is mammography. Because many females turn to obstetrician gynecologists for breast cancer screening, an understanding of the benefits and ...

Mammography

Ca-A Cancer Journal for Clinicians, 1991
A comparison is made of breast cancer mortality in women included in a mammography screening program, including those who refused to attend, and women who were not included--even those who underwent voluntary mammography. About 215,000 women in five different studies showed between 4 and 24% reduction of mortality; however, this was significant in only

DSP in mammography

2002 14th International Conference on Digital Signal Processing Proceedings. DSP 2002 (Cat. No.02TH8628), 2003
Breast cancer is the most frequently occurring cancer in females with no cure at present. Early detection offers the best chance of survival and mammography is used to screen the asymptomatic female population above fifty years of age. Computerized analysis of mammograms can assist radiologists to detect lesions or abnormalities.

Microdose mammography

Cancer, 1976
Tens of thousands of mammograms are performed daily in the United States. Accumulated radiation biologic data suggest that approximately 90-rad is the level of radition to the breast above which the incidence of cancer may be increase. A microdose system of roentgenography is described that provides better images at one-third to one-fifth the exposure ...

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.

Screening by Mammography

JAMA, 1966
Breast cancer is the leading cause of death from cancer among women in the United States. It casts a shadow over the lives of one of every 19 women. And, despite all research and clinical efforts, there has been no significant reduction in the breast cancer death rate over the past 30 years. Efforts to find a way to reduce mortality from breast cancer

Developments in mammography

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1976
Mammography is presented for the primarily nonradiologic audience. A brief historical review calls attention to some of the milestones in mammography and how it has changed. Xerororadiography is discussed, as it is one of the newer developments and is rapidly gaining broad acceptance in the United States.

The development of mammography

Physics in Medicine and Biology, 2006
This review traces the development of mammography physics over the last 50 years, concentrating mainly on technological changes and their inter-relations. It has been written for physicists with no specific mammography experience but a general interest in radiology, as much as for those with recent involvement in mammography.
