The sensitivity to detect small breast cancers and the specificity of conventional
mammography (CM) remain limited owing to an overlap in the appearances of lesions and …

OBJECTIVE. The primary objectives of this pilot study were to evaluate the radiation dose,
breast coverage, and image quality of cone-beam breast CT compared with a conventional …

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 …

The dedicated cone-beam breast computed tomography (CBBCT) is a new and promising
imaging modality which provides isotropic, 3D images of the breast with high spatial and …
