Three-dimensional (3-D) breast imaging or breast tomosynthesis.Uses equipment that rotates in an arc over the breast instead of the stationary system used in conventional SFM. The 3-D equipment produces thin slices of the breast from a great number of angles that generate clearer images, especi...
Design and performance of the prototype full field breast tomosynthesis system with selenium based flat panel detector We have developed a breast tomosynthesis system utilizing a selenium-based direct conversion flat panel detector. This prototype system is a modification o... B Ren,C Ruth,J Stein,...
Thus, the tomosynthesis system may provide reduced overlapping of inner tissues of a breast as compared to the mammography system. SUMMARY One or more exemplary embodiments provide an X-ray imaging method and apparatus by which an X-ray image having reduced noise and showing a clear boundary of...
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce driving force for moving an X-ray source while preventing the distortion of an image by reducing the vibration of the X-ray source.ユーワンレインホルドフランツウィルトジェームズペレグリノアレクサンダー...
A tomosynthesis X-ray imaging method includes mechanically moving an X-ray source in a stepped motion on an arc shaped path around an object using a track and irradiating the object with an X-ray dose from the X-ray source located at a plurality of steps along the arc shaped path. The ...
Compared to mammographic screening, digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) as an adjunct to full-field digital mammography (FFDM) so called combo-mode has been shown to improve sensitivity and reduce false positive rates in breast cancer detection. However, combo-mode screening increases the radiation ...
Methods, systems, and related computer program products for processing and displaying computer-aided detection (CAD) information associated with medical breast x-ray images, such as breast x-ray tomosynthesis volumes and conventional x-ray mammograms, are described. For one preferred embodiment, CAD ...
