Does screening DBT increase short-term follow-up rates?
By Kate Madden Yee
Screening digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) has been shown to reduce recall rates, increase cancer detection, and identify more invasive cancers. But does it also boost short-term follow-up rates? Researchers sought to answer this question in a study published online December 2 in Academic Radiology.

DBT use grows, but barriers remain
By Kate Madden Yee
Although digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) has become increasingly accepted as a clinical tool, access to the technology remains limited. In fact, while a third of U.S. radiology practices use it, only 11% of those that do are performing all mammograms with DBT, according to a study in the November Journal of the American College of Radiology.
