Abstract
The invention relates to a displaying system for displaying digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) data. First and second DBT volume images of the left breast of a woman and first and second DBT volume images of the right breast of the woman are provided by an image providing unit. Moreover, for each DBT volume image a two-dimensional navigation image is provided by a navigation image providing unit, wherein a user is allowed to indicate a location in the navigation image by using a user interface, whereafter a CAD marker associated with the location is determined in a DBT volume image of a breast and a corresponding CAD marker, if present, is determined in another DBT volume image of the breast. Slices of these DBT volume images, which are associated with the CAD markers, are presented on a display.
