Cost-effectiveness of MRI compared to mammography for breast cancer screening in a high risk population [PDF]

, 2009
Background Breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a sensitive method of breast imaging virtually uninfluenced by breast density. Because of the improved sensitivity, breast MRI is increasingly being used for detection of breast cancer among high risk
