AbstractEarly studies reported a 4‐ to 6‐fold risk of breast cancer between women with extremely dense and fatty breasts. As most early studies were case‐control studies, we took advantage of a population‐based screening program to study density and breast cancer incidence in a cohort design.

Low density mammography is associated with increased carotid intima-media thickness in middle aged premenopausal women [PDF]
Objectives: As the hormonal status of women does influence both mammographic breast density and atherosclerosis, the aim of the study was to evaluate the association between breast density on mammography and carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT).Methods:

Breast density and breast cancer
Breast density is increasingly recognized as an independent risk factor for the development of breast cancer. It has been shown to be associated with a four-to sixfold increase a woman's risk of malignant breast disease. Increased breast density, as identified on mammography, is known to decrease the diagnostic sensitivity of the examination, which is ...
