• Research in Breast imaging :

• • Improvements in diagnostic techniques.
  • Most efficient use of radiation dose.
    Goals:
    • Higher sensitivity.
    • Higher specificity.
    • Efficient screening of women aged below 50.

Digital techniques aim to use more efficiently the radiation dose to detect low contrast details

Present screening efficiency (30-40%) in reducing breast cancer mortality could be improved
