It is time to reconsider how we image the breast. Although the breast is a 3D structure, we
have traditionally used 2D mammography to perform screening and diagnostic imaging …

Dedicated breast computed tomography (BCT) is an emerging breast imaging modality. The
latest development has been the introduction of a spiral breast computed tomography …

Background Grating-based phase contrast computed tomography (PC-CT) at synchrotron
radiation sources has been shown to provide improved visualization of breast tumors …

We present the outcomes of combined feasibility studies carried out at Elettra and Australian
Synchrotron to evaluate novel protocols for three-dimensional (3D) mammographic phase …

In this chapter, the diagnostic potential of phase-contrast and dark-field mammography as a
future screening modality is exemplarily illustrated by means of a selective case study. First …

Purpose To review the published evidence on cone-beam breast computed tomography
(CBBCT) and summarize its diagnostic accuracy for breast lesion assessment. Materials and …

Objective Limited contrast between healthy and tumour tissue is a limiting factor in
mammography and CT of the breast. Phase-contrast computed tomography (PC-CT) …

Dedicated breast computed tomography (CT) is the latest in a long history of breast imaging
techniques dating back to the 1960s. Breast imaging is performed both for cancer screening …

Objectives To evaluate and compare the image quality of propagation-based phase-contrast
computed tomography (PB-CT) using synchrotron radiation and conventional cone-beam …

Breast cancer is a globally widespread disease whose detection has already been
significantly improved by the introduction of screening programs. Nevertheless …
