n the last part of the 1950s, Robert Egan at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center consolidated a strategy of low kVp with high mA and single emulsion movies to devise a technique for evaluating mammography interestingly. He distributed these outcomes in 1959 in a paper, and hence in a 1964 book called Mammography.
