One-View Digital Breast Tomosynthesis : Encouraging Results
According to results of Swedish Trial by Sophia Zackrisson et al published in Lancet Oncology recently, Breast cancer screening by use of one-view digital breast tomosynthesis with a reduced compression force has higher sensitivity at a slightly lower specificity for breast cancer detection compared with two-view digital mammography and has the potential to reduce the radiation dose and screen-reading burden required by two-view digital breast tomosynthesis with two-view digital mammography.
