Annual breast US benefits women with dense tissue
By Kate Madden Yee
Sunday, November 25 | 11:25 a.m.-11:35 a.m. | SSA01-05 | Arie Crown TheaterSince the 2009 passage of the breast density notification law in Connecticut, radiologists have a legal obligation to inform patients with mammographically dense breast tissue that they may benefit from the addition of screening breast ultrasound. But how effective is that second round of screening?

ABUS plus mammography finds cancer early in women with dense tissue
By Kate Madden Yee
Sunday, November 25 | 11:05 a.m.-11:15 a.m. | SSA01-03 | Arie Crown TheaterScreening with automated breast ultrasound (ABUS) -- as an adjunct to digital mammography -- detects early-stage, node-negative invasive carcinoma in asymptomatic women with dense breast tissue, according to researchers from George Washington University Medical Center. And finding these cancers could reduce breast cancer mortality rates.

Screening US valuable for women with dense breast tissue
By Kate Madden Yee
Sunday, November 25 | 10:55 a.m.-11:05 a.m. | SSA01-02 | Arie Crown TheaterScreening ultrasound is a valuable tool for women with dense breast tissue, as errors in mammographic interpretation can be high -- up to 28% according to recent data, researchers from South Korea will report in this scientific session.

US alone compares well to mammography for cancer detection
By Kate Madden Yee
Sunday, November 25 | 10:45 a.m.-10:55 a.m. | SSA01-01 | Arie Crown TheaterCould ultrasound serve as the primary screening test for breast cancer? In this Sunday morning presentation, researchers from the University of Pittsburgh will discuss results from a study that used American College of Radiology Imaging Network (ACRIN) 6666 data to evaluate outcomes of screening if ultrasound were the primary screening modality.
