Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Tomosynthesis is a new digital mammographic tool which can be performed at the same time as routine screening mammography. It creates CT-like slices through the breast, minimizing the tissue overlap. Tomosynthesis has the potential to improve screening mammography outcomes by increasing cancer detection rates, decreasing false negative rates and false positive rates. This trial will help determine if tomosynthesis is useful in a screening setting.
