Cone Beam Computed Tomography for Breast Imaging
Cone Beam Computed Tomography for Breast Imaging
The primary aim of this study is to continue the investigation of cone beam computed
 tomography (CBCT) for breast imaging already underway in the diagnostic setting by providing
 a compelling body of evidence incorporating non-contrast CBCT in the study protocol. The goal
 is to accumulate a body of evidence to provide data to incorporate CBCT into the diagnostic
 work-up of breast lesions.
