With these recommendations in mind, we proposed a study to evaluate women at our institution in whom breast cancer is diagnosed within 1 year of a previously benign mammogram. A retrospective chart review was performed over a 4-year period. Only patients who had both diagnostic mammograms and ...
Because of these concerns, the US Preventive Services Task Force recommended in 2009 that women start regular mammogram screening at age 50 years, not 40. The study authors noted, however, that simply changing age recommendations is not an optimal way to make breast cancer scre...

Typically, if there is a suspicious area on a mammogram, women get additional imaging to rule out cancer, followed by a biopsy if more information is still needed to determine if the suspect cells are malignant. When the extra tests don't find cancer, the mammogram result is considered a "...
Findings: While potentially useful, all women perceived the content around mammography overuse to be confusing, counter to their beliefs about the importance of mammogram screening, and against their clinicians’ recommendation. Stakeholders were also concerned that the content would induce anxiety rather ...
non-mass-enhancement (NME), and the reason for biopsy (high risk screening, staging, equivocal mammogram, and clinical suspicion) were also recorded. An upgrade was considered when the surgical excision yielded invasive carcinoma or ductal carcinoma in situ. Fisher exact test was used for ...
A study led by UC Davis Health has found that half of all women will experience at least one false positive mammogram over a decade of annual breast cancer screening with digital breast tomosynthesis (3D mammography). The risk of false positive results a
One case had 90% lobular morphology on resection; however the biopsy target was for calcifications on mammogram and the core showed predominantly high grade DCIS with only a small focus of invasive carcinoma. Conclusions: IDC-L can be diagnosed on core biopsies with good correlation on resection...
