Towards a biomechanical breast model to simulate and investigate breast compression and its effects in mammography and tomosynthesis

. In mammography, breast compression forms an essential part of the examination and is achieved by lowering a compression paddle on the breast. Compression force is mainly used as parameter to estimate the degree of compression. As the force does not consider variations of breast size or tissue comp...
