Measurements of X-Ray Capillary Optics for Digital Mammography
Abstract
Results of extensive mammography screenings have shown the need for detection of breast cancer at earlier and more curable stages to have any significant impact on the mortality rate. While new imaging technologies for breast cancer diagnosis like magnetic resonance imaging, breast ultrasound and breast specific positron emission tomography are being developed, x%ray imaging continues to function as a convenient and economical choice for early detection.
