Breast Cancer Outcomes From Ductal Carcinoma In Situ: A Population‐Based Cohort Study

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Women with ductal carcinoma in situ have an elevated risk of subsequent invasive breast cancer, but how this risk evolves over time is unclear. In this population‐based study of ethnically diverse women diagnosed between 2000 and 2022 in New Zealand, the risk of invasive ipsilateral breast cancer persisted beyond 5 years.

Value of Axillary Palpation and Ultrasound, and Axillary Recurrence in Male Breast Cancer: Results of the Registry Study

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Clinical and sonographic examination of breasts and axillae is standard in breast cancer (BC) care. The aim of this study is to highlight the value of axillary ultrasound in identifying axillary recurrences in male BC, which is still little considered in the literature.

Clinical Rationale of Dual‐Parameter Tumor Markers Reporting Without Reliance on Normal Reference Ranges

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
We recommend the current practice of tumor marker reporting to upgrade to two‐figure format to include a specific growth rate in parentheses. This can be of great clinical importance, especially in the subnormal range. ABSTRACT Introduction This review offers clinicians a novel view of tumor markers (TM).

Australia's Three System Approach to Mammographic Image Quality Assessment

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Mammographic image evaluation in Australia remains constrained by the use of fragmented, subjective, and largely unevaluated systems. The continued use of the Perfect (P), Good (G), Moderate (M), Inadequate (I) (PGMI) image evaluation system (IES) framework despite concerns around its validity and reliability reflects a perceived practical utility and ...
