Mammographic densities and breast cancer risk.
The radiological appearance of the female breast varies among individuals because of differences in the relative amounts and X-ray attenuation characteristics of fat and epithelial and stromal tissues. Fat is radiolucent and appears dark on a mammogram, and epithelium and stroma are radiodense and appear light. We review here the evidence that these variations, known as mammographic parenchymal...
متن کاملMammographic breast density, endocrine therapies, and breast cancer risk
MBD and breast cancer risk Elevated MBD is considered one of the strongest risk factors for breast cancer regardless of whether it is assessed as a categorical or quantitative measure.6 Women in the highest categories of breast density have a 4to 6-fold increased breast cancer risk compared with women in the lowest categories. MBD has been shown to be a stronger risk factor for breast cancer th...

متن کاملMammographic density--a risk factor for breast cancer.
The mammographic density belongs to risk factors for breast cancer. The increased density enhances the risk of interval breast cancers and it also increases the number of false negative as well as false positive results of the mammography. The increase in the mammographic density during the hormone replacement therapy is not identical with the enhanced mammographic density, which is a risk fact...
متن کاملMammographic screening and risk factors for breast cancer.
Screening mammography can distort estimated effects in breast cancer risk models due to associations with other risk factors. Mammography information was available in the Nurses' Health Study from 1988, and 1,815 incident breast cancers were accrued through 2000 among 55,625 women with risk factor data. Logistic models were fit for screening mammography, and inverse probability weighting was us...
