 n us to learn not only how to play the game but excel at it! Film scre
 en mammography has been the standard, but digital is here!\nFull field
  digital mammography (FFDM) continues to replace film screen mammograp
 hy around the country. This technology is versa-tile and has the abili
 ty to gather more information than ever before. The technology has evo
 lved so rapidly we are now on the third and fourth generation digital 
 mammography units. If you really want to understand digital imaging te
 chnology and the difference between DDM and CRM this is the class for 
 you. The transition from analog to digital mammography is exciting and
  requires the knowledge and understanding of more than just how to ope
 rate the unit. Post processing techniques, tomosynthesis, contrast sub
 traction, 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 qual
 ity control.\nCourse Topics Introduction• History / A Blast from the
