DEVICE

3D mammograpgy system

In addition to the standard care diagnostic imaging, all participants underwent two experimental acquisitions, in two projections (Cranio-Caudal and Mediolateral Oblique) on the breast of concern: one acquisition in Mode A (narrow angle acquisition) and one acquisition in Mode B (wide angle acquisition). The experimental imaging is compared to the standard of care imaging
