Factors affecting recall rate and false positive fraction in breast cancer screening with breast tomosynthesis – A statistical approach

Factors affecting recall rate and false positive fraction in breast cancer screening with breast tomosynthesis - A statistical approach.

In this study, we investigate which factors affect the false positive fraction (FPF) for digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) compared to digital mammography (DM) in a screening population by using classification and regression trees (C&RT) and binary marginal generalized linear models. The data was obtained from the Malmö Breast Tomosynthesis Screening Trial, which aimed to compare the performan...

Cumulative false positive recall rate and association with participant related factors in a population based breast cancer screening programme.

STUDY OBJECTIVE To investigate the cumulative false positive recall rate throughout the period of participation in a population based breast cancer screening programme and to examine its association with women related factors. DESIGN Analysis of a database to estimate the cumulative false positive recall rate after 10 biennial mammograms in a cohort of women. Cumulative risk after 10 rounds w...
