NCT ID: NCT03196635
Brief Summary: This study is being conducted to compare the image quality of breast images obtained using standard (technologist-controlled \[TC\]) compression and patient-assisted (PA) compression and to evaluate the impact of PA compression on clinical workflow.
Detailed Description: Patient-assisted (PA) compression allows the patient to participate in controlling the amount of compression force during mammography and is a personalized approach that has demonstrated successful reduction in discomfort experienced during mammography. GE Healthcare's Senographe Pristina, an innovative mammography platform that provides both two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) imaging capabilities, offers both standard and PA compression modes. This study is being conducted to compare the image quality of breast images obtained using TC compression and PA compression, and to evaluate the impact of PA compression on clinical workflow. The study population will consist of adult asymptomatic women presenting for screening 2D mammography.
