High-resolution breast CT outperforms FFDM and tomo
By Kate Madden Yee
Tuesday, December 3 | 3:30 p.m.-3:40 p.m. | SSJ02-04 | Room E450AHigh-resolution breast CT produces 3D images that are better than full-field digital mammography (FFDM) and tomosynthesis, and it does so at acceptable dose levels for screening procedures, according to German researchers.

Contrast breast CT shows promise for visualizing malignant masses
By Kate Madden Yee
Tuesday, December 3 | 3:10 p.m.-3:20 p.m. | SSJ02-02 | Room E450AIs contrast-enhanced dedicated breast CT better than tomosynthesis and digital mammography for visualizing suspicious lesions? Researchers from the University of California, Davis Medical Center will address this question during this Tuesday scientific session.

Women with dense breast tissue want supplemental tests
By Kate Madden Yee
Tuesday, December 3 | 3:00 p.m.-3:10 p.m. | SSJ01-01 | Arie Crown TheaterWomen want to know their breast density and have access to supplemental tests if their tissue is dense, whether they are patients at county hospitals or outpatient radiology clinics, according to research to be presented in this Tuesday afternoon session.

Can low-energy contrast mammo replace standard imaging?
By Kate Madden Yee
Tuesday, December 3 | 12:15 p.m.-12:45 p.m. | LL-BRS-TU4A | Lakeside Learning CenterIn this poster presentation, researchers will describe how low-energy contrast-enhanced digital mammography produced comparable images to standard mammography and therefore could replace the standard technique.

Lower-dose MBI still finds more cancers in dense tissue
By Kate Madden Yee
Tuesday, December 3 | 11:40 a.m.-11:50 a.m. | SSG01-08 | Room E451AUsing lower doses of radiopharmaceuticals in molecular breast imaging (MBI) works just as well as higher doses, researchers from the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, have found.

BSGI improves sensitivity of mammography, ultrasound
By Kate Madden Yee
Tuesday, December 3 | 11:20 a.m.-11:30 a.m. | SSG01-06 | Room E451AAdding breast-specific gamma imaging (BSGI) to mammography and ultrasound improves the ability of these modalities to find cancer, according to a study that will be presented at RSNA 2013 on Tuesday.

Tomosynthesis: An alternative to MRI for evaluating breast masses?
By Kate Madden Yee
Tuesday, December 3 | 10:50 a.m.-11:00 a.m. | VSBR31-12 | Arie Crown TheaterIn this Tuesday morning scientific session, researchers from the University of Pittsburgh will present findings from a study that compared lesion visibility and diagnostic accuracy using MRI, tomosynthesis, conebeam CT, and full-field digital mammography.

Tomosynthesis adds to mammography interpretation time
By Kate Madden Yee
Tuesday, December 3 | 10:30 a.m.-10:40 a.m. | VSBR31-10 | Arie Crown TheaterAdding tomosynthesis to mammography for breast cancer screening increases interpretation time when compared with conventional digital mammography alone, according to researchers from Massachusetts General Hospital.

Synthetic 2D mammograms comparable to conventional FFDM with tomo
By Kate Madden Yee
Tuesday, December 3 | 10:00 a.m.-10:10 a.m. | VSBR31-08 | Arie Crown TheaterRadiologists reviewing synthetic 2D mammograms produced on a tomosynthesis system had reading performance comparable to those interpreting standard full-field digital mammography (FFDM) in combination with tomosynthesis, according to a study to be presented Tuesday.

Tomo makes final cancer assessment categories more accurate
By Kate Madden Yee
Monday, December 2 | 3:50 p.m.-4:00 p.m. | SSE02-06 | Room E450AUsing tomosynthesis for diagnostic breast imaging can reduce the number of patients categorized as BI-RADS 3 -- and therefore reduce the number of women who return for follow-up, according to research to be presented in this Monday afternoon session.
