mammographic

Risk of breast cancer based on age and mammographic interpretation.

Women should be confident that mammographic screening can save lives.

In other women, additional mammographic images and an ultrasound are done.

In some women, only additional mammographic images are needed.

The number of extended lives attributable to mammographic detection is between two and six.

"We're not going to get it unless a whole bunch of other mammographic facilities shut up shop.

Mammographic abnormalities that required additional evaluation were detected in 112 women.

Overdiagnosis has been identified in mammographic screening for breast cancer.

Various studies find that 80 percent to 95 percent of mammographic abnormalities turn out not to be cancer.

These groups recommend regular mammographic screening for women over 40, either annually or once every two years, depending on a woman's age and medical history.

A critical factor determining mammographic sensitivity is the radiologist's interpretation.

If all the women for whom mammograms are recommended used such centers, the country's 11,000 mammographic screening devices would be more than enough.

Do implants obscure mammographic images, possibly impeding diagnosis of breast cancer?

The higher percent densities among Asian women do not necessarily contradict the mammographic density hypothesis.

The high correlation coefficient indicates a high level of standardization in mammographic assessment.

Characteristic calcifications are often visible on mammographic images.

The high rates of advanced breast cancer among women who come to municipal hospitals has little to do with the availability of mammographic screening programs.

"Newer techniques of dealing with mammographic abnormalities can keep women out of the operating room safely."

Mammographic screening can reduce the death rate from breast cancer by at least 25 percent for screening beginning by the age of 40.

Mammographic screening, resulting in early diagnosis, contributed significantly to this mortality decrement among Caucasian women.

We then computed arithmetical means for the mammographic parameters by quartile of soy intake.

Mammographic screening has also increased the diagnosis of noninvasive cancers and premalignant lesions.

An example is a tumor that is found by mammographic screening that would never be evident otherwise.

Stage of diagnosis in a country has been shown to decrease within ten years of introduction of mammographic screening programs.

High mammographic density is associated with a higher risk of developing breast cancer, but the reasons for this link are not certain and are being studied.
