Digital Mammography: An Update.
Mammography remains important for early detection and diagnosis of malignant breast diseases. In recent years, digital imaging technology has been able to address the challenges inherent in film-screen mammography and improve many aspects of care. Promising techniques include needle biopsies guided by digital mammography, computer-assisted diagnosis, tomosynthesis, contrast-enhanced mammography and scintimammography. Although it is unlikely that digital mammography will revolutionize how breast cancer is treated, it continues to enhance and help provide timely and accurate detection and diagnosis.
