What is a breast camera? Is it the same thing as mammography?

Yes, a breast camera refers to a molybdenum target.

Mammography machine

. The data system (BI-RADS) established and developed by American Radiological Society was first applied to the target mammography machine. Molybdenum target mammography machine has radiation, but it shows calcified lesions well. Images of different body positions can be saved and compared before and after the course of the disease. It is a supplement of breast ultrasound, as a general investigation tool of breast diseases. Ultrasonic wave does not radiate, but the diagnosis result depends on the professional level of the operator. And if the economic conditions are good, it can also be carried out.

Nuclear magnetic resonance examination

Its sensitivity is relatively high, but there must be a drug to enhance the image, which is simple.

Ordinary scanning

Infrared and CT are useless.

Breast examination
