advantage of breast tomosynthesis is its ability to detect the early stages of breast cancer that may develop. The procedure can be used to determine exactly where the microcalcification is, even the size of a pinhead, inside the breast tissue.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">These very tiny calcium deposits are not visible in common mammographic images or are indistinguishable from healthy breast tissues. Malignancies can develop from microcalcifications in the breasts.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Tomosynthesis-guided stereotaxic sampling is the only diagnostic procedure available that allows histological determination of microcalcification even without surgery.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid shape_divider_top-none shape_divider_bottom-none\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12 sc_layouts_column_icons_position_left\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Automatic breast tissue density measurement<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Women with denser breast tissue are at higher risk of developing breast cancer. Furthermore, it is also more likely that the tumour is difficult to identify due to dense breast tissue.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Determining breast tissue density is thus one of the most important part of the breast cancer diagnosis process.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In case of common mammography examinations, the radiologist tries to estimate the density of breast tissue by analysing the image.
