Could DBT change the equation of screening younger women?
By Kate Madden Yee
Could digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) tip the balance in favor of mammography screening for women in their 40s by increasing screening's benefits (cancer detection) and reducing its harms (recalls and false positives)? That's exactly what's proposed in a study published August 20 in Breast Cancer Research and Treatment.

DBT's benefits vary between Europe and the U.S.
By Kate Madden Yee
A new meta-analysis has reaffirmed the value of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) for breast screening, with DBT detecting more cancers with fewer recalls. But DBT's effect varied significantly between the U.S. and Europe, according to results published online August 9 in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.

How does access to prior images affect DBT's recall rate?
By Kate Madden Yee
Having access to prior mammography images and comparing them with current digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) exams reduced recalls by almost 70% in a study published June 29 in the Journal of the American College of Radiology. Comparing current images with priors also cut the digital mammography recall rate by 56%.
