Tomosynthesis imaging /

"Preface For much of the past century, projection radiography has been the workhorse in the diagnostic imaging clinic. Tomosynthesis, which introduces depth information to the x-ray radiographic image with little or no increase in radiation dose, could potentially replace projection radiography...
