Screening with mammography is bringing breast cancer patients to therapy at a far earlier stage in the development of the disease. This calls for a re-evaluation of therapeutic methods.Dr. László TabárDepartment of MammographyPeter B. Dean...
Furthermore, there is no convincing analysis showing that there is a beneficial impact of screening onoverallmortality.Breast cancer screeningis of course designed to have a specific impact on breast cancer mortality. However, this endpoint in itself may bias estimates of the effect of screening (...
Screening for breast cancer: time, travel, and out-of-pocket expenses. We estimated the personal costs to women found to have a breast problem (either breast cancer or benign breast disease) in terms of time spent, miles trave... R H,Secker-Walker,P M,... - 《Journal of the National...
There were higher appropriate screening rates among older women (67 %) compared to younger women (62 %) (Table 5). Furthermore, breast cancer screening rates increased with increasing neighborhood income, greater utilization of health services, and higher number of co-morbidities, having a ...
The research, presented today (Wednesday) at the 13th European Breast Cancer Conference, could make breast screening programs more effective and ultimately improve survival rates. It could also mean fewer people experiencing false positives—when screening indicatescancer, but further tests show there is...
Successful human-AI collaboration could greatly contribute to breast cancer mammographic screening. Here, the authors use a large-scale retrospective mammography dataset to simulate and compare five plausible AI-integrated screening pathways, finding optimal ways in which human-AI collaboration could be imp...
Chemotherapy, radiation and surgery may accelerate aging among people with breast cancer Common treatments for breast cancer — including chemotherapy, radiation and surgery — may accelerate biological aging among breast cancer survivors, according to results of a longitudinal, obser...
Early screening increases the likelihood of detecting cancer, thereby improving survival rates. National screening programs have been established in which eligible women receive a letter containing a voucher for a free screening. Even so, mammography use is often considered as remaining too low. We te...
