Journal Article
Mercer, C., Szczepura, K., Kelly, J., Millington, S., Denton, D., Borgen, R., …Hogg, P. (2015). A 6 year study of mammographic compression force : practitioner variability within and between screening sites. Radiography, 21(1), 68-73. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.radi.2014.07.004

Background The application of compression force in mammography is more heavily influenced by the practitioner rather than the client. This can affect client experience, radiation dose and image quality. This research investigates practitioner comp...

A mammography image set for research purposes using BI-RADS density classification (2014)
Journal Article
Mercer, C., Hogg, P., Kelly, J., Borgan, R., Millington, S., Hilton, B., …Wheelan, P. (2014). A mammography image set for research purposes using BI-RADS density classification. Radiologic technology, 85(6), 609-613

Purpose Breast density categorization consistency is important when performing research, and minimization of interoperator and intraoperator variability is essential. This research aimed to validate a set of mammography images for visual breast den... Read More about A mammography image set for research purposes using BI-RADS density classification.
