In this week's study in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, a research team claimed to find that mammography screening had no impact on mortality from breast cancer, based on their interpretation of data from Swedish counties. However, the group made a number of fatal mistakes in their analysis, according to Dr. László Tabár.
