Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Digital full-field mammography (FFDM) adoption at Charité Medical Center since 1999.
  • Comparison between FFDM and conventional mammography.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Evaluate the value of FFDM in breast imaging.
  • Compare FFDM with conventional mammography.
  • Outline future prospects of digital mammography.

Main Methods:

  • Over 1,000 FFDM (Senographe 2000D) performed between June 1999 and April 2000.
  • Comparison with conventional mammograms (Philips UC Diagnost, Senographe DMRplus).

Main Results:

  • FFDM performance was equal to conventional mammography.
  • FFDM showed superiority in detecting microcalcifications in dense glandular tissue.

  • Adequate assessment was possible despite lower spatial resolution.

    • Conclusions:

    • FFDM is at least equal to, and in some aspects superior to, conventional mammography.
    • Lower spatial resolution of FFDM had no major disadvantages.
    • FFDM enables electronic storage, telemammography, and computer-aided diagnosis.
