Mammography

Came on this picture while working


this image shows a mammography process. one day most most of u gals out day will have to do it. it is designed to scan ur boobies, and expert view this scan to check for breast cancer.

most people call this CAT scan, basically its a x-ray scan with greater range to give a 3D image and 'slices' at different 'depth'.

the latest technology in computer intelligence (what my dissertation is on, although its not mainly on breast cancer) can automatically detect where the lesions and clusters are and point them out so experts can have a easier time making decision (saves 80% of missed cases, missed casses stands at around 20% of diagnosis). these A.I. can detect very early forms of cancers and some even determines whehter it is harmless or otherwise, although the decision is for the radiologist/doctor to make. this alones save even more lifes on this over populated world.

the reason i write about this thing is not to raise awareness or any of those c**p.

the main question is this:notice the picture at how the breast is scan? placed on a tray and pressed and scanned...i was wondering whether girls with smalle A-cup boobies...how can they put 'it' on that thing????
