CEM - Contrast Enhanced Mammography - anyone heard of it? Supposed to be good for Dense Breasts

I found this in one of my news feeds last week ..... and going by the pics (below the 'normal' Dense Breast Tissue Images) the CEM appears to show the cancer much more specifically in size and shape ....

Yep, I had no idea that density could change either!  Initially I thought it was due to ageing but from the studies I've read the reduction in density indicates a good response to Tamoxifen.  I'm going to ask my MO about it when I see her next.
