Journal ArticleDOI
PB.10: Breast compression, compressed breast thickness and volumetric breast density
Jennifer Khan-Perez,CE Mercer,M Bydder,Jamie C. Sergeant,John C. Morris,Anthony J. Maxwell,C Rylance,SM Astley +7 more
TL;DR: The relationship between breast density and imaging parameters is explored and adequate compression of the breast during mammography is essential both for ensuring high-quality images and for accurate assessment of breast density using automated volumetric breast density software.
Book ChapterDOI
Factors Affecting Agreement between Breast Density Assessment Using Volumetric Methods and Visual Analogue Scales
Lucy Beattie,Elaine F. Harkness,M Bydder,Jamie C. Sergeant,Jamie C. Sergeant,Anthony J. Maxwell,Nicky Barr,Ursula Beetles,Caroline Boggis,Sara Bundred,Soujanya Gadde,Emma Hurley,Anil K. Jain,Elizabeth Lord,Valerie Reece,Mary E. Wilson,Paula Stavrinos,D. Gareth Evans,Tony Howell,Susan M. Astley +19 more
TL;DR: Careful positioning during mammographic imaging should reduce discrepancy, but a greater understanding of the relationship between methods is also required.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A stepwedge-based method for measuring breast density: observer variability and comparison with human reading
Jenny Diffey,Michael Berks,Alan Hufton,Camilla Chung,Rosanne Verow,Joanna Morrison,Mary Wilson,Caroline R. M. Boggis,Julie Morris,Anthony J. Maxwell,Susan M. Astley +10 more
TL;DR: A semi-automated, stepwedge-based method that has been applied to the mammograms of 1,289 women in the UK breast screening programme to measure breast density by volume and area and there was good correlation between breast density assessed by the stepWedge method and the radiologists.
Journal Article
Gallstone ileus following endoscopic sphincterotomy.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Reader performance in visual assessment of breast density using visual analogue scales: are some readers more predictive of breast cancer?
Millicent Rayner,Elaine F. Harkness,Philip Foden,Mary Wilson,Soujanya Gadde,Ursula Beetles,Yit Yoong Lim,Anil Jain,Sally Bundred,Nicky Barr,D. Gareth Evans,Anthony Howell,Anthony J. Maxwell,Susan M. Astley +13 more
TL;DR: Individual differences when assigning VAS scores are demonstrated; one better identified those with increased risk, whereas another better identified low risk individuals, however, despite their different strengths, both readers showed similar predictive abilities overall.
