Supplemental screening may be considered based on the patient's risk level and breast density. For average-risk women with nondense breasts, the sensitivity of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) screening is high; additional supplemental screening is not warranted in this population. For average-risk...
BI-RADS US category 2 was the most common category representing 36.7%. Ultrasonography had a diagnostic reliability for differentiating between benign and malignant breast lesions (p=0.869) in mammographically dense breasts while mammography was diagnostically unreliable (p=0.045). Ultrasound is a ...
Breast cancer remains the most common nonskin cancer, the second leading cause of cancer deaths, and the leading cause of premature death in US women. Mammography screening has been proven effective in reducing breast cancer deaths in women age 40 years and older. A mortality reduction of 40% ...
