Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen, renowned as the father of radiology, was born in 1845 in Germany. In 1895, he discovered X-rays, a form of radiation capable of passing through objects and producing images on screens and plates. This discovery revolutionized medicine and marked the beginning of a new era. X-rays found their greatest triumph in medicine, enabling the visualization of internal structures of the body without the need for invasive procedures. From bone X-rays to anatomy and pathology studies, X-rays became an invaluable tool for doctors. Later, advanced techniques were developed, which further expanded the scope of X-rays in the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases. Roentgen was noted for his modesty and generosity in freely sharing his findings with the scientific community. Radiology has evolved with the use of techniques such as computed tomography and PET-CT (Positron Emission Tomography-computed Tomography), which provide three-dimensional images with surprising precision. In addition, artificial intelligence and machine learning tools are being used to improve diagnostic accuracy. On the centenary of his passing, we remember Roentgen as a pioneer whose legacy lives on in modern medicine. His work lives on, inspiring successive generations in scientific inquiry.

Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen, conocido como el padre de la radiología, nació en 1845 en Alemania. En 1895, descubrió los rayos X, una forma de radiación capaz de atravesar objetos y producir imágenes en pantallas y placas. Este descubrimiento revolucionó la medicina y abrió una nueva era. Los rayos X encontraron su mayor triunfo en la medicina, permitiendo la visualización de estructuras internas del cuerpo sin la necesidad de procedimientos invasivos. Desde radiografías óseas hasta estudios de anatomía y patología, los rayos X se convirtieron en una herramienta invaluable para los médicos. Posteriormente se desarrollaron técnicas avanzadas, que ampliaron aún más el alcance de los rayos X en el diagnóstico y tratamiento de diversas enfermedades. Roentgen destacó por su modestia y generosidad al compartir libremente sus hallazgos con la comunidad científica. La radiología ha evolucionado con el uso de técnicas como la tomografía computarizada y el PET-CT (Positron Emission Tomography-computed Tomography), que proporcionan imágenes en tres dimensiones con una precisión sorprendente. Además, se están utilizando herramientas de inteligencia artificial y aprendizaje automático para mejorar la precisión en el diagnóstico. En el centenario de su fallecimiento, recordamos a Roentgen como pionero cuyo legado perdura en la medicina moderna. Su labor perdura, inspirando a sucesivas generaciones en la indagación científica.

One of the most frequently detected neoplasms in women in Italy is breast cancer, for which high-sensitivity diagnostic techniques are essential for early diagnosis in order to minimize mortality rates. As addressed in Part I of this work, we have seen how conditions such as high glandular density or limitations related to mammographic sensitivity have driven the optimization of technology and the use of increasingly advanced and specific diagnostic methodologies. While the first part focused on analyzing the use of a mammography machine from a physical and dosimetric perspective, in this paper, we will examine other techniques commonly used in breast imaging: contrast-enhanced mammography, digital breast tomosynthesis, radio imaging, and include some notes on image processing. We will also explore the differences between these various techniques to provide a comprehensive overview of breast lesion detection techniques. We will examine the strengths and weaknesses of different diagnostic modalities and observe how, with the implementation of improvements over time, increasingly effective diagnoses can be achieved.
