The equipment looked about the same to me: I still had to get into a somewhat contorted positioned with the breast to be scanned on the bottom plate and the tech applied compression.

She told me she need to get the compression to "at minimum a 4" and anything higher than that is all the better. I had them stop compression at 8. And yes, it wasn't as painful as I recall from the past.
