digital breast tomosynthesesmass screeningpractice guidelinessystematic reviewBackground Diagnostic mammography projections (DxMM) have been traditionally used in the assessment of women recalled after a suspicious screening mammogram. Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) reduces the tissue overlap effect, thus ...
The purpose of this study is to develop a new method for generating synthesized mammogram (SM) from digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) and to assess its potential as an adjunct to DBT. We first applied multiscale bilateral filtering to the reconstructed DBT slices to enhance the high-frequency ...
3-D tomosynthesis is different from a standard mammogram in the same way a CT scan of the chest is different from a standard chest X-ray. Standard mammography includes two X-rays of each breast from different angles, typically top to bottom and side to side. Standard mammograms are very ef...
3D digital tomosynthesis is one such new x-ray imaging system that creates 3D digital images of tissue (e.g., breast tissue). A suitable tomosynthesis device is described in copending application entitled “Tomosynthesis X-Ray Mammogram System And Method With Automatic Drive System” which is inc...

A novel approach to digital breast tomosynthesis for simultaneous acquisition of 2D and 3D images The complexity of anatomical structure within the breast represents the ultimate limit to signal detection on a mammogram. To increase lesion conspicuity D... S Vecchio,A Albanese,P Vignoli,... - 《...
The mammogram synthesizing device comprises: an input unit to receive image data from an X-ray detector; and a control unit to produce the digital breast tomosynthesis image by preprocessing the received image data, to produce a forward projection image and a maximum intensity projection image from...
ESAK measurements were also acquired with a 4.5-cm thick breast phantom for a standard mammogram. Organ dose conversion factors (CFD) were determined as ratio of air kerma at a specific depth to that at the surface for the PMMA phantom and multiplied by the ratio of mass energy absorption ...
