Views Cranio Caudal View This view includes most of the breast tissue. Ensure firstly the bucky height is correct and at the level of the infra mammary fold so the breast is fully elevated including the posterior tissue. This reduces the chance of pulling the skin as the compression comes down. The patient stands facing the bucky with her head turned away from the side being examined. Keep one arm around her shoulder and the other hand to position the breast. Position from the medial side of the woman Criteria for assessing the CC view As much medial and lateral tissue visualised as possible Aim to include pectoral muscle Correct exposure Adequate compression No movement Proper processing No artefacts No skin folds or shoulder in view Images should be symmetrical Correct film ID-patient details, markers, date, and radiographer's initials Nipple in profile-if difficult, do an extra nipple view. Medio-Lateral Oblique The degree of angulation depends on the angle of the pectoralis major muscle. The film holder should be parallel to the angle of the pectoral muscle at the mid axillary line. Generally taller, slimmer women need a steeper angle. Smaller women may need to be more lateral and larger breasted women less than 45 degrees. Ask the woman the place her hand on the bar as the armpit is placed over the bucky corner. Ensure no folds on the lateral side of the breast and check all the lateral tissue is on the edge of the Bucky. The arm should be resting over and on to the back of the bucky. Gently push the shoulder down by the hand on the clavicle. Once sure there is adequate axillary tissue, position the breast and apply the compression while supporting the inferior aspect. The breast needs to be pulled up and out so that it will be imaged at 90 degrees to the chest wall. Ensure no folds and smooth out the inframammary region. To be sure that all the breast tissue has been imaged the top of the compression plate should be just below the clavicle and the inner edge alongside the sternum. Criteria for assessing the MLO view Its limitation is that it does not include all of the medial breast tissue. Pectoral muscle viewed to nipple line Full width of pectoral muscle Nipple in profile Visualisation of inframammary fold No skin folds Ideally images should be symmetrical Lateral Projection This view may be performed as an aid to radiological correlation of a clinical lump. A lateral view may also be performed in examining prostheses to ensure inclusion of as much tissue as possible. It is also a work up view of detected lesions. Latero-Medial The tube is rotated 90 degrees with the bucky at the level of the sternal notch. The chin is over the top of the bucky and the sternum against the edge so all tissue is shown. The arm of the side of interest holds the c-arm handle and the elbow flexed to relax the pectoral muscle. The whole breast is lifted upwards and outwards from the chest wall. With the nipple in profile the compression is applied gradually to include the inframammary area and as much pectoral muscle as possible. Medio-Lateral The tube is rotated 90 degrees and the lateral aspect of the chest wall is along the bucky edge. The height is at the level of the axilla. The arm of the side being examined is lifted and supported on top of the bucky. The breast is lifted upwards and onwards and compression applied so the nipple is in profile Criteria for assessing the Lateral view The nipple must be in profile Good visualisation of the inframammary area A short wedge of pectoral muscle at the chest wall edge Breast tissue should be well compressed and lifted up and out at 90 degrees to the chest wall. Jigsaws To demonstrate the tissue on a large breasted woman with a degree of overlap from film to film so that no tissue is missed, it is necessary to divide the areas of breast tissue. In our clinic the cc view is divided into 1-lateral 2-medial portion 3-front/nipple area. With the obl view A-pectoral area B-inferior portion, C- anterior/nipple area. The AEC must be placed under the most glandular area of breast tissue to avoid under or over exposed films. It is important to inspect previous films prior to imaging. KV should be 26-28 KVp. For dense breasts Rhodium is used. AEC and Kvp Selection The AEC must be placed under the most glandular area of breast tissue to avoid under or over exposed films. It is important to inspect previous films prior to imaging. KV should be 26-28 KVp. For dense breasts Rhodium is used. Conclusion Good basic techniques are necessary in breast cancer detection. Hence high quality image standards are a must as well as good basic positioning techniques to aid in the early detection of breast cancer Specialised Views Specialized views are to demonstrate tissue not fully seen in routine views, perhaps due to special positioning problems. Specialized views are also performed to help categorise mammographic lesions. 1. Extended CC View Normally done with lateral bias No body rotation so that sagittal orientation is achieved Useful for lateral lesions in axillary tail 2. Cleopatra View Used to visualise the axillary tail Compresses the lateral aspect close to the pectoral muscle Get patient to lean sideways 3. Cleavage View Visualises lesions deep in the medial aspect of the breast May need to use a manual exposure Can be difficult on thin women Some tissue posterior to cleavage should be visible if positioned correctly 4. Coned Compression View Can be taken in any projection Allows better compression over a small area, separating overlying structures and enhancing image detail Better definition of lesions against a fatty background Separates superimposed ductal structures in the retroareolar area The paddle allows further back imaging Often combined with magnification 5. Magnification View Useful to define calcifications Provides sharper more defined image No bucky as air gap reduces scatter radiation Spot or full compression paddle can be used 6. Pinch View for Breast Prostheses Implants may inhibit breast compression and obscure some breast tissue An additional latero-medial view is needed if the implant cannot be displaced, to demonstrate all tissue as well as possible Manual exposures may be necessary For the implant, which can be displaced, the routine views should be taken with the implant in place, and the implant displaced (4 views per breast) Modified compression technique enables improved imaging of the breast tissue, free of the implant There is always some compromise when imaging the augmented breast 7.Tangential View To visualise superficial lesions close to the skin with the least amount of overlying tissue to allow better margin differentiation The area may be a mass, a tender area or a skin dimpling Place a lead marker over the area of interest Rotate the breast until the skin marker is tangential Use spot compression Can be magnified 8.Axillary View Useful for visualising axillary soft tissue Often the breast tissue is over penetrated Answer the following questions on mammography and then find the answers in the word find 1. The lateral and [ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ] aspects of the breast are most mobile and if correctly utilised will allow consistent optimal breast tissue visualisation. 2. The axillary tail of breast tissue extending towards the axilla is also known as the tail of [ _ _ _ _ _ _ ]. 3. [ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ] ligaments provide structural support for the breast tissue. 4.
