Trial Information

Combined Digital X-ray and Ultrasound Technique for Improved Detection and Characterization of Breast Lesions


The device produces 3-D mammograms and ultrasound pictures of the breast at the same time
and in the same position. This should help make sure that any area on a mammogram can be
easily found in the ultrasound when using the new device. The 3-D mammograms should provide
better visualization of the suspected lesion and improve diagnostic accuracy.
