Abstract
Grid imaging increases images obtained but decreases retargeting and biopsy table time at the expense of mammogram room/technologist time to obtain the grid image. The overall result is longer total procedure time (grid time plus table time) for the patient/technologist. A grid image therefore has limited usefulness and should be used judiciously in cases where prone positioning is challenging to patients.
