Abstract

A method is for generating a synthetic mammogram. In an embodiment, the method incudes acquisition of a plurality of projection data sets at a plurality of projection angles; and generation of at least one synthetic mammogram with an image property essentially equivalent to a conventional full-field digital mammography acquisition based on several projection data sets.
