Abstract

Various methods and systems are provided for digital mammography imaging procedures. In one example a method for an x-ray system includes acquiring a comparative image of a patient with an x-ray detector, aligning the comparative image with a reference image which includes an ROI, mapping the ROI of the reference image onto the comparative image. When mapping indicates the ROI is outside of frame of the comparative image, the method includes displaying comparative image with instructions indicating a relative position of the ROI.
