Journal ArticleDOI
Breast tomosynthesis and digital mammography: a comparison of breast cancer visibility and BIRADS classification in a population of cancers with subtle mammographic findings.
Ingvar Andersson,Debra M. Ikeda,Sophia Zackrisson,Mark Ruschin,Mark Ruschin,Tony Svahn,Pontus Timberg,Anders Tingberg +7 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that the cancer visibility on BT is superior to DM, which suggests that BT may have a higher sensitivity for breast cancer detection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance of one-view breast tomosynthesis as a stand-alone breast cancer screening modality: results from the Malmö Breast Tomosynthesis Screening Trial, a population-based study
Kristina Lång,Ingvar Andersson,Aldana Rosso,Anders Tingberg,Pontus Timberg,Sophia Zackrisson +5 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that one-view DBT might be feasible as a stand-alone screening modality for breast cancer screening, and the recall rate increased significantly but was still low.
Journal ArticleDOI
Breast tomosynthesis: Accuracy of tumor measurement compared with digital mammography and ultrasonography.
Daniel Förnvik,Sophia Zackrisson,Otto Ljungberg,Tony Svahn,Pontus Timberg,Anders Tingberg,Ingvar Andersson +6 more
TL;DR: The study indicates that BT is superior to DM in the assessment of breast tumor size and stage and staging was significantly more accurate with BT than with DM.
Journal ArticleDOI
One-view breast tomosynthesis versus two-view mammography in the Malmö Breast Tomosynthesis Screening Trial (MBTST): a prospective, population-based, diagnostic accuracy study.
Sophia Zackrisson,Kristina Lång,Aldana Rosso,Kristin Johnson,Magnus Dustler,Daniel Förnvik,Hannie Förnvik,Hanna Sartor,Pontus Timberg,Anders Tingberg,Ingvar Andersson +10 more
TL;DR: The main aim of the Malmö Breast Tomosynthesis Screening Trial (MBTST) was to investigate the accuracy of one-view digital breast tomosynthesis in population screening compared with standard two- view digital mammography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dose dependence of mass and microcalcification detection in digital mammography: free response human observer studies.
Mark Ruschin,Pontus Timberg,Magnus Båth,Bengt Hemdal,Tony Svahn,Robert S. Saunders,Ehsan Samei,Ingvar Andersson,Sören Mattsson,Dev P. Chakraborty,Anders Tingberg +10 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that lowering the present dose level by a factor of two compromised the detection of microcalcifications but had a weaker effect on mass detection.
