Journal ArticleDOI
American Cancer Society Guidelines for Breast Screening with MRI as an Adjunct to Mammography
Debbie Saslow,Carla Boetes,Wylie Burke,Steven E. Harms,Martin O. Leach,Constance D. Lehman,Elizabeth A. Morris,Etta D. Pisano,Mitchell D. Schnall,Stephen F. Sener,Robert A. Smith,Ellen Warner,Martin J. Yaffe,Kimberly S. Andrews,Christy A. Russell +14 more
TL;DR: There are several risk subgroups for which the available data are insufficient to recommend for or against screening, including women with a personal history of breast cancer, carcinoma in situ, atypical hyperplasia, and extremely dense breasts on mammography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mammographic Density and the Risk and Detection of Breast Cancer
Norman F. Boyd,Helen Guo,Lisa J. Martin,Limei Sun,Jennifer Stone,Eve Fishell,Roberta A. Jong,Greg Hislop,Anna M. Chiarelli,Salomon Minkin,Martin J. Yaffe +10 more
TL;DR: Extensive mammographic density is strongly associated with the risk of breast cancer detected by screening or between screening tests, and a substantial fraction of breast cancers can be attributed to this risk factor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diagnostic Performance of Digital versus Film Mammography for Breast-Cancer Screening
Etta D. Pisano,Constantine Gatsonis,Edward Hendrick,Martin J. Yaffe,Janet K. Baum,Suddhasatta Acharyya,Emily F. Conant,Laurie L. Fajardo,Lawrence W. Bassett,Roberta A. Jong,Murray Rebner +10 more
TL;DR: The overall diagnostic accuracy of digital and film mammography as a means of screening for breast cancer is similar, but digital mammography is more accurate in women under the age of 50 years, women with radiographically dense breasts, and premenopausal or perimenopausal women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surveillance of BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers with magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, mammography, and clinical breast examination.
Ellen Warner,Donald B. Plewes,Kimberley Hill,Petrina A. Causer,Judit Zubovits,Roberta A. Jong,Margaret R. Cutrara,Gerrit DeBoer,Martin J. Yaffe,Sandra J. Messner,Wendy S. Meschino,Cameron Piron,Steven A. Narod +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the sensitivity and specificity of four methods of breast cancer surveillance (mammography, ultrasound, MRI, and CBE) in women with hereditary susceptibility to breast cancer due to a BRCA1 or BRCa2 mutation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative Classification of Mammographic Densities and Breast Cancer Risk: Results From the Canadian National Breast Screening Study
Norman F. Boyd,J W Byng,R A Jong,E. Fishell,L E Little,Anthony B. Miller,Gina Lockwood,David Tritchler,Martin J. Yaffe +8 more
TL;DR: Increases in the level of breast tissue density as assessed by mammography are associated with increases in risk for breast cancer, and these results show that increases in theLevel of breast cancer risk associated with increasing mammographic density is shown.
