摘要
A spot compression and magnification device for use with mammographic units to aid in the spot compression of a female patient's breast to obtain a high degree of focal breast compression and a high quality x-ray image of a suspicious mass within the breast. The device has a base including an open bottom and an upstanding pedestal opening into the base, the pedestal having a flat top surface so that an air gap is provided between the top surface of the pedestal and the surface of the imaging platform or cassettes cover of a conventional mammographic unit. The pedestal has a substantially truncated conical form while the base has a substantially truncated pyramid configuration. Clamping handles are resilientlty attached to portions of the base to permit the handles to be pulled away from the base and be urged into clamping engagement in conjunction with the bottom edge of the base against the cassette cover.
