This homestudy course titled Digital Mammography Selected Topics: Overview, Breast Tomosynthesis, Artifacts provides a comprehensive overview of digital mammography. There are four major sections of the course: Introduction to Digital Imaging and Digital Mammography; Digital Mammography: An Overview; Breast Tomosynthesis: Present Considerations and Future Applications: and, Digital Mammographic Artifacts on Full-Field Systems: What are They and How Do I Fix Them? The following is a brief summary of the contents of each of the four major sections of the course. Introduction to Digital Imaging and Digital Mammography includes an introduction to digital imaging and computer systems, research studies of importance to digital mammography, breast cancer statistics and breast abnormalities, breast cancer screening, benefit versus risk of mammography, radiation dose parameters, radiation exposure and risk during mammography, mammography equipment design for the reduction of radiation exposure, computer-aided diagnosis, and picture-archiving and communication system. Digital Mammography: An Overview provides current information about digital detector technology to include slot scanning with a scintillator and a charged-coupled device (CCD) array, an flat-panel scintillator an amorphous silicon diode array, flat-panel amorphous selenium array, tiled scintillator with fiberoptic tapers and a CCD array, and photosimulable phosphor plates. Breast Tomosynthesis: Present Considerations and Future Applications provides timely information about breast tomosynthesis; what it is and the advantages and disadvantages of its application in breast imaging. Digital Mammographic Artifacts on Full-Field Systems: What are They and How Do I Fix Them? Provides very recent information about artifacts commonly seen with full-field digital mammography systems. The section provides images illustrating the artifacts discussed, causes, and probable solutions for overcoming them in future examinations. This course applies to all radiographers both RT's and limited radiographers.
