The study adds to a growing body of evidence supporting DBT as a breast cancer screening tool with important advantages over mammography. DBT works by capturing a series of X-ray images of the breast from different angles. Previous research has shown that it has a higher sensitivity for breast cancer detection than digital mammography.
