Abstract
The use of breast cushions significantly reduced the pain during film-screen mammography. Image quality with the cushions was reduced in a very small subset of women probably due to the difficulty in positioning the breast without visual clues. More research needs to be done prior to the routine use of these cushions in clinical practice.
