23 DIGITAL BREAST TOMOSYNTHESIS Quasi-three-dimensional information from DBT allows triangulation of subtle one-view-only lesions so that further targeted imaging (US>MRI) is possible. In a study of 115 malignant lesions, 35% were better or only seen on DBT CC view whereas only 11% were better or only seen on MLO view 4 Another study of 34 mixed benign and malignant lesions, 15% were better seen at CC DBT 5 4 Beck N, Butler R, Durand M, et al.

Guidance issued in ACR Dose Registry analysis in 2013 showed significant heterogeneity nationwide regarding adoption.
