It is a type of exaggerated cranio-caudal view.
It is particularly good for imaging the lateral aspect
of the breast. It is often
done when a lesion is suspected on a MLO view but
cannot be seen on the CC view. In
this view, the lateral aspect of the breast is placed
forward.
One rationale of performing this view is that many
cancers are located in the lateral
aspect of the breast.
An XCCM view is a supplementary mammographic view.
It is a type of exaggerated cranio-caudal view.
It is particularly good for imaging the medial portion
of the breast.
In this view, the medial portion of the breast is
placed forward.
A negative 15degrees tube tilt is suggested.
An optimal XCCM view requires the most medial portion
of the breast and the nipple
in profile to be clearly displayed.

presence.
When the lesion identified moves medially or laterally
respect to the standard projection,
it is possible to determine in which quadrant it

Scintimammography uses small amounts of radioactive

A rolled CC view Is performed to locate a lesion
only visible in the cranio-caudal
view, or when overlapped tissues in the standard
view can simulate or partially conceal
a lesion: changing of  tissues distribution  allows
to determine whether or not its
presence.
When the lesion identified moves medially or laterally
respect to the standard projection,
it is possible to determine in which quadrant it
is localized.
The breast is positioned on the image receptor as
for the cranio-caudal view, then
is rotated medially or laterally around the axis
of the nipple prior to applying
compression.

This is performed by taking samples of an abnormality
under guidance from the Scintimammogram.
Scintimammography uses small amounts of radioactive
material, a special camera and a computer to help
investigate a breast abnormality.
This helps to guide the radiologist's biopsy equipment

to the site of the imaging abnormality.

Scintimammography is also known as nuclear medicine
breast imaging, Breast Specific
Gamma Imaging (BSGI) and Molecular Breast Imaging
(MBI).
This type of exam is used to investigate a breast
abnormality found with mammography.
Scintimammography uses small amounts of radioactive
material, a special camera and
a computer to help investigate a breast abnormality.
Scintimammography can detect cancer even when dense
breast tissue and breast implants
are present.
It can reduce unnecessary procedures by helping determine
whether a biopsy is needed.

    <definition
                value="A spot compression is recommended.
A spot view (also known as a spot compression view
or focal compression view) is
an additional mammographic view performed by applying
the compression to a smaller
area of tissue using a small compression paddle,
increasing the effective pressure
on that spot.
This results in better tissue separation and allows
better visualization of the breast
tissue in that area.
It is used to distinguish between the presence of
a true lesion and an overlap of
tissues, as well to better show the borders of an
abnormality or questionable area
or a little cluster of faint microcalcifications
in a dense area.

A surgical biopsy is a procedure that involves the
surgical removal of tissue from
a lump or mass for examination under a microscope.
This test may also be called an open biopsy.
Surgical biopsies can be excisional (removal of an
entire lump or abnormal area)
or incisional (removal of a piece of a lump or abnormal
area).
