Mammographic breast density as an intermediate phenotype for breast cancer

The Lancet Oncology, 2005
The amount of radiologically dense breast-tissue appearing on a mammogram varies between women because of differences in the composition of breast tissue, and is referred to here as mammographic density. This review presents evidence that mammographic density is a strong risk factor for breast cancer, and that risk of breast cancer is four to five ...

The influence of mammographic density on breast tumor characteristics

Breast Cancer Research and Treatment, 2012
Mammographic density (MD) is a well-established risk factor for breast cancer. Whether MD influences the tumor phenotype remains to be clarified. Previous studies are highly inconsistent and most lack important covariate information. This is a case-only study within a population-based case-control study.

Postmenopausal hormone therapy and mammographic breast density

Maturitas, 2006
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of different types of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) on mammographic density.In a prospective 1-year study, 103 postmenopausal women were randomized to receive tibolone 2.5 mg/die, continuous conjugated equine estrogens 0.625 mg/die plus medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) 5mg/die or placebo ...

Local mammographic density as a predictor of breast cancer

SPIE Proceedings, 2015
High overall mammographic density is associated with both an increased risk of developing breast cancer and the risk of cancer being masked. We compared local density at cancer sites in diagnostic images with corresponding previous screening mammograms (priors), and matched controls.

[Hormones and mammographic breast density].

Journal de radiologie, 2008
Breast constitutional density may be altered and increased (acquired density) by hormonal interventions such as hormone replacement therapy (HRT). The effects of endogenous (steroids, prolactin, insulin-like factors...) and exogenous (HRT, levonorgestrel IUD, tibolone, tamoxifen, SERMs) hormones will be reviewed.

Tamoxifen and mammographic breast densities.

Cancer epidemiology, biomarkers & prevention : a publication of the American Association for Cancer Research, cosponsored by the American Society of Preventive Oncology, 2001
The extent of breast tissue density on mammograms is one of the strongest risk factors for breast cancer. The aim of this analysis was to evaluate whether tamoxifen can affect mammographic breast density. Subjects were participants in the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast Project Breast Cancer Prevention Trial (BCPT), recruited and followed at the ...
