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.

Efficacy of MRI and Mammography for Breast-Cancer Screening in Women with a Familial or Genetic Predisposition
Mieke Kriege,Cecile T. M. Brekelmans,Carla Boetes,Peter E. Besnard,H. M. Zonderland,Inge Marie Obdeijn,Radu A. Manoliu,Theo Kok,Hans Peterse,Madeleine M.A. Tilanus-Linthorst,Sara H. Muller,Sybren L. Meijer,Jan C. Oosterwijk,Louk V.A.M. Beex,Rob A. E. M. Tollenaar,Harry J. de Koning,Emiel J. Th. Rutgers,Jan G. M. Klijn +17 more
TL;DR: MRI appears to be more sensitive than mammography in detecting tumors in women with an inherited susceptibility to breast cancer.

Efficacy of MRI and mammography for breast-cancer screening in women with familial or genetic predisposition
Mieke Kriege,C.T.M. Brekelmans,Carla Boetes,Steve Latosinsky,Geoffrey A. Porter,Todd M Tuttle +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared mammography to MRI in detecting breast cancer in women with a familial or genetic predisposition to breast cancer, and found that MRI appears to be more sensitive than mammography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combined screening with ultrasound and mammography vs mammography alone in women at elevated risk of breast cancer.
Wendie A. Berg,Jeffrey D. Blume,Jean B. Cormack,Ellen B. Mendelson,Daniel Lehrer,M. Böhm-Vélez,Etta D. Pisano,Roberta A. Jong,W. Phil Evans,Marilyn J. Morton,Mary C. Mahoney,Linda Hovanessian Larsen,Richard G. Barr,Dione M. Farria,Helga S. Marques,Karan Boparai +15 more
TL;DR: The diagnostic yield, sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic accuracy (assessed by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve) of combined mammography plus ultrasound vs mammography alone and the positive predictive value of biopsy recommendations for mammographyplus ultrasound vs Mammography alone are compared.

American association of Clinical Endocrinologists, American college of endocrinology, and Associazione Medici Endocrinologi medical guidelines for clinical practice for the diagnosis and management of thyroid nodules - 2016 update
Hossein Gharib,Enrico Papini,Jeffrey R. Garber,Daniel S. Duick,R. Mack Harrell,Laszlo Hegedüs,Ralf Paschke,Roberto Valcavi,Paolo Vitti +8 more
TL;DR: The present document updates previous guidelines released in 2006 and 2010 and states that percutaneous ethanol injection should be the first-line treatment option for relapsing, benign cystic lesions, while US-guided thermal ablation treatments may be considered for solid or mixed symptomatic benign thyroid nodules.

Journal ArticleDOI
Solid breast nodules: use of sonography to distinguish between benign and malignant lesions.
TL;DR: Sonography can be used to accurately classify some solid lesions as benign, allowing imaging follow-up rather than biopsy, and this distinction could be definite enough to obviate biopsy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamic breast MR imaging: are signal intensity time course data useful for differential diagnosis of enhancing lesions?
Christiane K. Kuhl,Peter Mielcareck,Sven Klaschik,Claudia Leutner,Eva Wardelmann,Jürgen Gieseke,Hans H. Schild +6 more
TL;DR: The shape of the time-signal intensity curve is an important criterion in differentiating benign and malignant enhancing lesions in dynamic breast MR imaging and a type III time course is a strong indicator of malignancy and is independent of other criteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System: inter- and intraobserver variability in feature analysis and final assessment.
TL;DR: Inter- and intraobserver variability in mammography interpretation is substantial for both feature analysis and management, and continued development of methods to improve standardization in mammographic interpretation is needed.

Breast Density as a Predictor of Mammographic Detection: Comparison of Interval- and Screen-Detected Cancers
Margaret T. Mandelson,Nina Oestreicher,Peggy L. Porter,Donna White,Charles A. Finder,Stephen H. Taplin,Emily White +6 more
TL;DR: Mammographic breast density appears to be a major risk factor for interval cancer in women participating in mammographic screening from 1988 through 1993.

Breast patterns as an index of risk for developing breast cancer
TL;DR: A restrospective study of 7,214 patients placed into one of four groups of risk for developing carcinoma of the breast found that there was a 37 times greater incidence for those at highest risk compared to the low risk group.
