Abstract
An x-ray identification module includes a strip having recesses formed in opposite surfaces thereof. An opaque x-ray marker is received within one of the recesses, and a lateral strip portion is defined adjacent each recess. At least two suction cups are mounted to the lateral portion adjacent each recess, in non-overlying relationship to the marker-so as to avoid adding thickness to the strip in the area of the marker. The module is particularly useful for mammography.
