Levels of C-Peptide and Mammographic Breast Density [PDF]

Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention, 2005
AbstractMembers of the insulin-like growth factor family have been associated with breast cancer risk and mammographic breast density, one of the strongest known breast cancer risk indicators. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to examine the association of levels of C-peptide (a marker of insulin secretion) with mammographic breast density ...

Risk of Cancer With Hormone Replacement Therapy: A Narrative Review

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) remains the cornerstone of menopausal symptom management, effectively alleviating vasomotor symptoms and genitourinary syndrome, whilst mitigating long‐term risks such as osteoporosis. However, despite an increasing body of evidence on the relative safety of HRT, earlier studies that demonstrated an increased ...

Combined Contrast Enhanced Mammography and Digital Breast Tomosynthesis in Patients Suspected of Having Breast Cancer: A Prospective Comparison With Digital Mammography and Breast MRI—Findings of the CONTEST Study

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction We aimed to assess diagnostic performance and accuracy for local staging of CEM combined with DBT (CE + DBT) compared to digital mammography (DM) and MRI. Methods Female patients aged 18–70 years with clinical or sonographic suspicion of breast cancer had CE + DBT and breast MRI prior to treatment.

Mammographic density and prognosis in primary breast cancer patients

Breast, 2021
Purpose: Mammographic density (MD) is one of the strongest risk factors for breast cancer (BC). However, the influence of MD on the BC prognosis is unclear.

Agreement of mammographic measures of volumetric breast density to MRI. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND:Clinical scores of mammographic breast density are highly subjective. Automated technologies for mammography exist to quantify breast density objectively, but the technique that most accurately measures the quantity of breast fibroglandular ...

Appearance of Stabilised Hyaluronic Acid Gel on Routine Surveillance Breast Imaging When Used to Mark the Post‐Lumpectomy Tumour Bed in Breast Cancer

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Stabilised hyaluronic acid (sHA) gel can be used as a breast cancer tumour bed marker. This study aimed to assess the gel on post‐treatment surveillance mammography (MMG) and breast ultrasound (USS). Methods Patients who underwent breast‐conserving surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy, with sHA gel markers (0.3–0.5 mL drops) in ...

Mammographic breast density and its association with urinary estrogens and the fecal microbiota in postmenopausal women.

PLoS ONE, 2019
BackgroundBreast density, as estimated by mammography, is a strong risk factor for breast cancer in pre- and postmenopausal women, but the determinants of breast density have not yet been established.

Application of Noise2Inverse and adaptation (Noise2Phase) to single‐mask x‐ray phase contrast micro‐computed tomography

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract X‐ray phase contrast imaging (XPCI), when implemented in micro‐computed tomography (micro‐CT) mode, offers high‐contrast 3D imaging of weakly‐attenuating material samples. In the so‐called single‐mask edge illumination approach, a mask with periodically spaced transmitting apertures is used to split the x‐ray beam into narrow beamlets; when ...

The Evolution of Breast Cancer Detection: A Review of Imaging, Machine Learning, and Multimodal Strategies

Computational and Systems Oncology, Volume 6, Issue 1, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Breast cancer is still a serious problem in the world arena, where its early and prompt detection is the most important factor in improving patient prognosis and survival. The use of traditional diagnostic techniques, such as imaging (e.g., mammography and ultrasound) and subsequent histopathological examination, is the mainstay, which ...
