X‐ray‐induced acoustic computed tomography for 3D breast imaging: A simulation study

Purpose The objective of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility of x‐ray‐induced acoustic computed tomography (XACT) for early breast un‐palpable microcalcification (μCa) detection in three dimensions (3D). The proposed technique provides the true 3D imaging for breast volume which overcomes t...
