TLDR
Addition of tomosynthesis to digital mammography offers the dual benefit of significantly increased diagnostic accuracy and significantly reduced recall rates for noncancer cases.Abstract:
The addition of tomosynthesis to digital mammography offers the dual benefit of improved diagnostic accuracy and significant reduction in false-positive recall rate, thereby avoiding unnecessary additional testing and decreasing attendant anxiety, inconvenience, and cost for women.read more

Screening Mammography Guidelines: An Alternative Proactive Approach
TL;DR: In this opinion piece, it is suggested that breast imagers modify their initial interpretations and their downstream recommendations for screening mammograms, thereby reducing recall rates, percutaneous biopsies, and surgical resections.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection and characterization of breast lesions in a selective diagnostic population: diagnostic accuracy study for comparison between one-view digital breast tomosynthesis and two-view full-field digital mammography.
TL;DR: A beneficial effect on the detection and characterization of breast lesions was found for one-view DBT compared with two-view FFDM in a selective diagnostic population and Improvements were especially enhanced in females with dense breasts.

TL;DR: The results extend previous findings with synthetic textures and highlight how search in 3D images is distinct from 2D search as a consequence of the interaction between search strategies and the visibility of signals in the visual periphery.

Digital breast tomosynthesis versus full-field digital mammography-Which modality provides more accurate prediction of margin status in specimen radiography?
Heba A. Amer,Florian F. Schmitzberger,Barbara Ingold-Heppner,Julia Kussmaul,Manal F. El Tohamy,Hazim I. Tantawy,Bernd Hamm,Marcus R. Makowski,Eva M. Fallenberg +8 more
TL;DR: SR using DBT is significantly superior to FFDM regarding identification of the closest margin and sensitivity in assessment of margin status, and significantly better for DBT than FFDM in terms of correct assessment ofmargin status.

Screening for Lung Cancer: U.S. Preventive Services Task Force Recommendation Statement
TL;DR: Although lung cancer screening is not an alternative to smoking cessation, the USPSTF found adequate evidence that annual screening for lung cancer with LDCT in a defined population of high-risk persons can prevent a substantial number of lung cancerrelated deaths.

TL;DR: 7 years after the start of the study the excess of stage I cancers in the study group largely outweighs the deficit of advanced cancers, and the results to the end of 1984 show a 31% reduction in mortality from breast cancer and a 25% reduced in the rate of stage II or more advanced breast cancers.

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.

TL;DR: The USPSTF concludes that the current evidence is insufficient to assess additional benefits and harms of either digital mammography or magnetic resonance imaging instead of film mammography as screening modalities for breast cancer.

TL;DR: The accuracy of screening mammography is best in older women and in women with fatty breasts, and the individual and combined effects of age, breast density, and HRT use on mammographic accuracy are examined.
