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

TL;DR: To evaluate the recall rates of digital mammography and synthetic images after adding digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) in patients with breast-conserving surgery, adding DBT to synthetic 2D images or DM shows significant reduction in recall rates compared with DM alone for women who undergo breast- Conserving surgery for breast cancer, regardless of mammographic density.

TL;DR: While in some conditions SM provides higher CNR than DM, lower overall performances in terms spatial resolution and CD curves were found in comparison to DM images, given the great benefits of SMs in terms of dose and compression time saving, further clinical investigations on SMs image quality properties could be of practical interest.

TL;DR: Screening DBT was used more frequently under private insurance than Medicaid, Medicare, other, or no insurance by the latest observed period, but no sustained differences in use of DBT for diagnostic testing were seen by insurance type.

The role of digital breast tomosynthesis in breast cancer screening: a manufacturer- and metrics-specific analysis.
TL;DR: The optimum implementation method of DBT in breast screening, in terms of diagnostic benefit and patient radiation dose, for one manufacturer does not necessarily apply to other manufacturers.

Breast tomosynthesis for the clarification of mammographic BI-RADS 3 lesions can decrease follow-up examinations and enables immediate cancer diagnosis.

TL;DR: DBT has the potential to reduce the recall-rate of BI-RADS 3 lesions and to find and diagnose malignant lesions earlier than 2D mammography alone.

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.
