The relationship between compression force, image quality and radiation dose in mammography
Background. Mammography aims to obtain mammograms of best possible image quality with least possible radiation dose.1 Theoretically, an increase in breast compression gives a reduction in thickness, without changing the density, resulting in improved image quality and reduced radiation dose. Ai...
