X-ray detectors for digital radiography
Martin J. Yaffe,John A. Rowlands +1 more
TL;DR: The underlying physical considerations defining the performance of x-ray detectors for radiography will be reviewed and some of the more promising existing and experimental detector technologies which may be suitable for digital radiography are considered.

Clinical Comparison of Full-Field Digital Mammography and Screen-Film Mammography for Detection of Breast Cancer
John M. Lewin,Carl J. D'Orsi,R. Edward Hendrick,Lawrence J. Moss,Pamela K. Isaacs,Andrew Karellas,Gary Cutter +6 more
TL;DR: No significant difference in cancer detection was observed between digital mammography and screen-film mammography, andDigital mammography resulted in fewer recalls than did screen- film mammography.

Method and system for computer-aided lesion detection using information from multiple images
TL;DR: A system, method, and computer program product for computer-aided detection of suspicious lesions (204) in digital mammograms wherein single view feature vectors (704) from a first mammogram are processed in a classification algorithm (706) along with information computed from a plurality of related mammograms to assign an overall probability of suspiciousness (711) to potentially suspicious lesions in the first digital mammogram as mentioned in this paper.
PatentDOI
Computer aided diagnosis of mammographic microcalcification clusters
TL;DR: The development and evaluation of a computer-aided detection and diagnosis algorithm for mammographic calcification clusters that could exceed the performance of a similar visual analysis system that was used as basis for development and could be applied to images from different imaging systems and film digitizers with similar sensitivity and specificity rates.
Patent
Method and apparatus for fast detection of spiculated lesions in digital mammograms
TL;DR: In this article, a line and direction image is created from a digital mammogram, and a region of potential intersection for substantially every pixel in the image is determined, such as a high aspect ratio rectangle or trapezoid, positioned around the pixel and rotated in a direction corresponding to direction information for that pixel.
