Potential applications<br />
We believe that the competitiveness of the European technology<br />
platform will manifest itself more strongly in the<br />
second generation of mammography and that the proposed<br />
project will be able to deliver a standard for 3D<br />
mammography that will be unsurpassed for quite some<br />
time to come. There is also no reason why the photoncounting<br />
advantages in mammography should not be<br />
benefi cial as well in other imaging applications, such as CT<br />
and chest x-ray imaging. This project may provide the<br />
example needed for the technology to spread also to<br />
those areas.<br />
