Mammographic screening for early detection of breast cancer has proven valuable in improving breast cancer survival. However, breast cancer incidence is still increasing, and thus preventative oncology needs to receive more attention, with the goal of identifying women with increased risk of developing breast cancer in the future and offering them risk reduction interventions. Mammogram derived...
BACKGROUND Mammographic density is a strong risk factor for breast cancer. METHODS We present a novel approach to enhance area density measures that takes advantage of the relative density of the pectoral muscle that appears in lateral mammographic views. We hypothesized that the grey scale of film mammograms is normalized to volume breast density but not pectoral density and thus pectoral de...
PURPOSE A method and computer tool to estimate percentage magnetic resonance (MR) imaging (MRI) breast density using three-dimensional T(1)-weighted MRI is introduced, and compared with mammographic percentage density [X-ray mammography (XRM)]. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ethical approval and informed consent were obtained. A method to assess MRI breast density as percentage volume occupied by wate...
BACKGROUND Mammographic density is one of the strongest risk factors for breast cancer. It is commonly measured by an interactive threshold method that does not fully use information contained in a mammogram. An alternative fully automated standard mammogram form (SMF) method measures density using a volumetric approach. METHODS We examined between-breast and between-view agreement, reliabili...
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the sensitivity of breast-specific gamma imaging (BSGI) for the detection of breast cancer in dense versus nondense breasts. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a retrospective study of 341 women with biopsy-proven breast cancer diagnosed from January 2004 to August 2009 who underwent BSGI before surgical excision. Patients with predominantly fat...
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...
Purpose To investigate the impact of radiation dose on breast density estimation in digital mammography. Materials and Methods With institutional review board approval and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act compliance under waiver of consent, a cohort of women from the American College of Radiology Imaging Network Pennsylvania 4006 trial was retrospectively analyzed. All patien...
Background: Human breast milk contains high levels of fat and toxins. These substances which exist in our country based on many reports. This study aimed to evaluate the concentration of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the mother’s milk during the first postnatal week. Methods: This study was accomplished on 50 mothers who gave birth to a healthy infant at Vali-e-Asr University Hospit...
