Digital Mammography: A Practical Approach

Written by expert radiologists and physicists.

Digital Mammography: A Practical Approach compares digital mammography to conventional film-screen mammography, reviews clinical cases and explores newer modalities.

Key topics include:

• Digital detectors
• Monitors
• Image acquisition
• Image storage, retrieval and transfer
• Image interpretation and efficacy
• Artifacts
• A comparison of commercially available systems
• Mobile digital mammography

An image atlas and sections on digital tomosynthesis and computed tomography of the breast enhance the text. Digital Mammography: A Practical Approach melds the worlds of clinical radiology and physics in an easy-to-understand, practical resource. A valuable addition to the shelf of radiologists, radiologic technicians, practising medical physicists and mammography technologists; and any practitioners developing and expanding digital mammography programs.
