Are you dense? The implications and imaging of the dense breast [PDF]

South African Journal of Radiology, 2018
Mammography relies on a visual interpretation of imaging results that is often confounded by dense breast tissue. Dense tissue affects the ability and accuracy with which the radiologist is able to detect cancer.

Impact of childbirth history on dense breast in mammographic screening: a cross-sectional study [PDF]

BMC Women's Health, 2022
Background The evaluation of breast density is important, because dense breast has been shown to be associated with increased risk of breast cancer and a greater risk of a false-negative diagnostic performance due to masking a tumor.

Cost-Effectiveness of Magnetic Resonance Imaging Screening for Women With Extremely Dense Breast Tissue. [PDF]

J Natl Cancer Inst, 2021
Background Extremely dense breast tissue is associated with increased breast cancer risk and limited sensitivity of mammography. The DENSE trial showed that additional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) screening in women with extremely dense breasts ...

Second-Generation 3D Automated Breast Ultrasonography (Prone ABUS) for Dense Breast Cancer Screening Integrated to Mammography: Effectiveness, Performance and Detection Rates. [PDF]

J Pers Med, 2021
In our study, we added a three-dimensional automated breast ultrasound (3D ABUS) to mammography to evaluate the performance and cancer detection rate of mammography alone or with the addition of 3D prone ABUS in women with dense breasts.

Evaluating the Extended Parallel Process Model's Danger Control Predictions in the Context of Dense Breast Notification Laws. [PDF]

Health Commun, 2022
This study evaluates predictions central to the extended parallel process model (EPPM) in the context of dense breast notifications. Many EPPM propositions have gone untested and competing predictions to the model have been evaluated to an even lesser ...

Diagnostic accuracy of contrast-enhanced digital mammography in breast cancer detection in comparison to tomosynthesis, synthetic 2D mammography and tomosynthesis combined with ultrasound in women with dense breast. [PDF]

Br J Radiol, 2021
OBJECTIVE To assess the diagnostic efficacy of contrast-enhanced digital mammography (CEDM) in breast cancer detection in comparison to synthetic two-dimensional mammography (s2D MG), digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) alone and DBT supplemented with ...
