| Popis: | Relevance: Breast cancer is the most common malignant neoplasm among wom-en in our country. Mammography is currently the method of choice in breast can-cer diagnostics. However, it has limitations associated with the imposition of breast tissue layers, which makes it difficult to identify lesions and leads to a mis-diagnosis. Breast tomosynthesis is a tomographic technique in which the effect of tissue superimposition is significantly reduced due to layer-by-layer scanning. The purpose of this study was to review the capacity of tomosynthesis in the di-agnosis of breast cancer. Results: The combination of tomosynthesis with a synthesized image is the best technology for screening because it offers the best combination of efficiency and radiation dose. Advantages include greater diagnostic accuracy due to both in-creased sensitivity and specificity, and a significantly less need for additional mammography projections (targeted mammography, targeted mammography with magnification). Conclusions: Tomosynthesis as a diagnostic method significantly exceeds the method of mammography. The higher informative value of the results provided by tomosynthesis reduces the frequency of false-negative and false-positive radio-logical conclusions. |
