The controversial recent recommendation by the United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) against prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening for early-stage prostate cancer has caused much debate. Whereas USPSTF recommendations against routine screening mammography in younger women resulted in fierce public outcry and eventual alteration in the language of the recommendation, the same...
OBJECTIVE . We evaluated the association between clinical image quality and breast cancer occurrence within 24 months of a negative mammogram. MATERIALS AND METHODS . We identified women with breast cancer who were younger than 40 years old and older and screened from January 1, 1988, through December 31, 1993. We retrospectively assigned Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) asses...
BACKGROUND The results of randomized trials show that breast cancer screening by mammography reduces breast cancer mortality by up to 40% in women aged 50-69 years. Because of these results, by 1998, 22 countries, including Canada, had established population-based organized screening programs. This paper presents the results of screening mammography in 1996 for 7 provincially organized breast c...
INTRODUCTION Participation rate is an important indicator for a screening program's effectiveness; however, the current approach to measuring participation rate in Canada is not comparable with other countries. The objective of this study is to review the measurement of screening mammography participation in Canada, make international comparisons, and propose alternative methods. METHODS Cana...
CONTEXT Women with inherited BRCA1/2 mutations are at high risk for breast cancer, which mammography often misses. Screening with contrast-enhanced breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) detects cancer earlier but increases costs and results in more false-positive scans. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of screening BRCA1/2 mutation carriers with mammography plus breast MRI compa...
background the mammograms and papanicolaou (pap) test of women aged 25 to 64 years are iran’s national strategy for breast and cervical cancer screening, respectively. widespread primary care services are supplied through a network of primary health centers; nonetheless, little is known about breast and cervical cancer screening-related practices among healthcare workers in hospitals. objective...
T he benefits associated with breast cancer screening and screening in general depend critically on patients’ life expectancy and the risk of death from competing causes. However, it is unclear if health care providers and patients take life expectancy into account when deciding whether to screen. A number of studies have examined the impact of age and health status on receipt of mammography. A...
BACKGROUND Digital breast tomosynthesis with 3D images might overcome some of the limitations of conventional 2D mammography for detection of breast cancer. We investigated the effect of integrated 2D and 3D mammography in population breast-cancer screening. METHODS Screening with Tomosynthesis OR standard Mammography (STORM) was a prospective comparative study. We recruited asymptomatic wome...
BACKGROUND Self-reported screening behaviors from national surveys often overestimate screening use, and the amount of overestimation may vary by demographic characteristics. We examine self-report bias in mammography screening rates overall, by age, and by race/ethnicity. METHODS We use mammography registry data (1999-2000) from the Breast Cancer Surveillance Consortium to estimate the valid...
