June 28, 2007 (Chicago) — Deliberations over breast cancer screening are back in the news again after German researchers at the American Society of Clinical Oncology 43rd Annual Meeting presented data in favor of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). "MRI has been in the news a lot lately," ...
Both a mammogram (also called mammography) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are radiological techniques used to screen for breast cancers. According to studies, breast cancer screening using MRI two times a year is considered better than one mammogram per year to detect breast cancer early in...
Women's health related to breast imaging, including mammography, breast MRI, ABUS, automated breast ultrasound, breast ultrasound, breast biopsy, PEM and positron emission mammography.
A mammogram is basically an x-ray with a particular focus on imaging thebreast. Breast tissue is quite dense; therefore a mammography unit is designed to increase the quality of the pictures without increasing the radiation. This means that only the breast tissue is exposed to the x-rays. Th...

magnetic resonance imaging is typically performed concurrently with mammographic screening (or on an alternating 6-month basis). whether the added cost and poor tolerability of screening breast mri are justified is less clear. given the low interval cancer rate across our study (8%), 0 to 1 ...
What Happens During a Mammogram? Registered mammography technologists perform the test. Most of them are women. A doctor specialized in interpreting imaging studies (radiologist) will interpret the X-rays. You’ll stand in front of an X-ray machine. The technologist will put your breast between ...
February 9, 2024 — An innovative breast imaging technique provides high sensitivity for detecting cancer while significantly reducing the likelihood of false positive results, according to a study published today in Radiology: Imaging Cancer, a journal of the Radiological Society of North America (...

Ultrasound vs. MBI One of the main differences between breast ultrasound and molecular breast imaging is the type of image each produces, either anatomic or physiologic, respectively. An ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to produce an image of the anatomy of the breast tissue at that exa...
