Eastman Kodak has received FDA approval for a mammography computer-aided detection (CAD) device.

 The FDA's initial consent is a precursor to receiving agency marketing approval on a new product providing that certain criteria are met, including completion of a good manufacturing process (GMP) review.

 Kodak plans to offer its CAD software as a stand-alone product and as a component of its digital capture and image-and-information management systems.
