Abstract
Since its commercial introduction in 1998, Mammography computer-aided detection (CAD) has been one of the few CAD technologies widely implemented in clinical practice. The original concept of CAD marks as overlays on images has been broadly accepted, although new paradigms have been proposed and successfully tested that could one day challenge that original approach. But now, as breast imaging evolves further with the advent of digital breast tomosynthesis, new image processing techniques are developing that may cause us to re-evaluate the clinical requirements for Mammography CAD as we know it. What clinical problems in breast imaging are not solved by tomosynthesis, and how can CAD help us with those problems?
