A simple device for dependent compression mammography.
The authors describe an inexpensive device which displaces the dependent breast from the chest wall for optimum and uniform compression of breast tissue during mammography. Exposure is reduced, detail is enhanced, and superimposed structures are spread out. The filming time is about five minutes, and repeat or additional views are rarely necessary. The authors feel that by using this device, they have not missed any posterior lesions in more than 10 years of use. Even dense breasts are adequately visualized with this technique.
