Comparing Synthetic Mammography and Full-Field Digital Mammography
This study is comparing two types of breast imaging: synthetic mammography (SM) and full-field digital mammography (FFDM). Researchers want to see how these methods compare in interpreting images and their overall performance. Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) is an advanced mammography technique, and synthetic mammography is a 2D image created from DBT data without extra radiation. The study aims to understand the benefits of synthetic mammography. You may be able to join if you are a woman aged 18 or older and are a consecutive case at a breast imaging center. The study will look at medical records and past imaging results to see how well synthetic mammography works compared to full-field digital mammography over an average of one year.
- Study design
- This is an observational study involving 750 women. It compares synthetic mammography with full-field digital mammography.
- What's involved
- Your medical records and past imaging examinations will be reviewed. No other procedures or visits are specified.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- The primary endpoint is measured through study completion, an average of 1 year.
