The advantages of digital mammography include:
- Improved imaging of dense breast tissue, which is common in younger women
- Decreased waste, uses less energy and eliminates the use of chemicals needed to process X-ray film
- Cutting the time in half to perform a screening mammogram versus traditional film mammography
- Easier access to images across health care systems and the ability to transmit images to another facility with the click of a button
- Ability to correct images for overexposure or underexposure without having to repeat the X-ray
