Abstract: An improved x-ray mammography diagnostic apparatus with a digital detector forming a preferably rotatable subject table having a first concave curved surface formed by several arcs with different radii on one side of the table and another concave curved surface formed by several arcs with different radii on either adjacent or opposite side of the same table, these two curved surfaces allowing to accommodate curvature of the human breast and curvature of the rib cage below the breast of each patient and permitting to take a complete x-ray reading and detection of all areas of the human breast under examination, particularly at all points of connection with the rib cage wall and in the axilla area. The second concave curved surface is configured to fittingly accommodate the curvature of individuals with different bodily dimensions than those that could be accommodated by the first concave curved surface.

Abstract: An improved x-ray mammography diagnostic apparatus with a digital detector forming a subject table that a concave curved surface formed by several arcs with different radii on one side of the table and another concave curved surface formed by several arcs with different radii on either adjacent or opposite side of the same table, these two curved surfaces allowing to accommodate curvature of the human breast and curvature of the rib cage below the breast or both breast areas of each patient and permitting to take a complete x-ray reading and detection of all areas of the human breast under examination, particularly at all points of connection with the rib cage wall and in the axilla area. The second concave curved surface is also configured to fittingly accommodate the curvature of a rib cage below a human breast under examination for individuals with different bodily dimensions than those that could be accommodated by the adjacent (or opposite) first concave curved surface of the subject table.
