Sustained Favorable Outcomes Found With Digital Breast Tomosynthesis
Recall rate percentage significantly lower and cancer detection rate significantly higher for DBT versus DM
Continuing Annual Breast Cancer Screening No Benefit in Over-75s
No significant reductions found in eight-year breast cancer mortality for continuing versus stopping screening
Notification Laws May Not Increase Knowledge of Dense Breast Risks
Women with lower education may be less likely to gain awareness of breast density due to the laws
More Education Needed on Breast Density and Screening Choices
Women largely do not know breast density ups risk for breast cancer even in U.S. states with notification
AI System Outperforms Radiologists in Breast Cancer Prediction
Reduction seen in false positives, false negatives in datasets from the United Kingdom, United States
RSNA: Biennial Mammo Returns More Advanced-Stage Cancers
Annual mammography screening, used by most patients, yields smaller and less advanced cancers
Cancer Yield Similar for Dense Breast Ultrasound After DM, DBT
Detection rates for additional cancers similar after digital mammography, digital breast tomosynthesis
Foreign-Born Women in U.S. Less Likely to Have Mammograms
Findings remain even after adjusting for common sociodemographic factors
AI Assists in Reading of Digital Breast Tomosynthesis Images
Concurrent use of AI system improves cancer detection, reduces reading time and recall rate
Use of 3-D Mammography Rapidly Expanded 2015 to 2017
Adoption varied widely by region; uptake more rapid in areas with greater socioeconomic resources
