 learn not only how to play the game but excel at it! Film screen mammo
 graphy has been the standard, but digital is here!\nFull field digital
  mammography (FFDM) continues to replace film screen mammography aroun
 d the country. This technology is versa-tile and has the ability to ga
 ther more information than ever before. The technology has evolved so 
 rapidly we are now on the third and fourth generation digital mammogra
 phy units. If you really want to understand digital imaging technology
  and the difference between DDM and CRM this is the class for you. The
  transition from analog to digital mammography is exciting and require
 s the knowledge and understanding of more than just how to operate the
  unit. Post processing techniques, tomosynthesis, contrast subtraction
 , CAD and many more tools are available to help detect breast cancers.
  Join us to see the use of digital imaging in mammography and gain the
  understanding of digital imaging and digital mammography quality cont
 rol.\nCourse Topics\nIntroduction• History / A Blast from the Pastâ€
