Impact of super-resolution and image acquisition on the detection of calcifications in digital breast tomosynthesis

Objectives A virtual clinical trial (VCT) method is proposed to determine the limit of calcification detection in tomosynthesis. Methods Breast anatomy, focal findings, image acquisition, and interpretation ( n = 14 readers) were simulated using screening data ( n = 660 patients). Calcifications (0...
