The disadvantages of full size film and film screen techniques have stimulated research during recent years for an alternate approach. For our technique, we have been developing a low light level television system to eliminate many of the disadvantages thereby yielding the potential for improved diagnosis of early pathology at reduced radiation, cost, procedure time and storage and retrieval expense. This isocon imaging system is being developed for early breast cancer, lung cancer and pneumoconiosis detection.
