There is no consensus in the literature regarding the image receptor (IR) position for the cradio-caudal
projection in mammography. Some literature indicates the IR should be positioned to the infra mammary
fold (IMF); other literature suggests the... Read More about Does elevating image receptor increase breast receptor footprint and improve pressure balance?.
