Examples of background parenchymal uptake categories. Molecular breast imaging (MBI) examinations and corresponding full-field digital mammograms from four different women are shown. All images were acquired in the mediolateral oblique projection. MBI with photopenic background parenchymal uptake (BPU) (a) and corresponding mammogram (b). MBI with minimal to mild BPU (c) and corresponding mammogram (d). MBI with moderate BPU (e) and corresponding mammogram (f). MBI with marked BPU (g) and corresponding mammogram (h)
