Screening with magnetic resonance imaging, mammography and ultrasound in women at average and intermediate risk of breast cancer

ConclusionsIn terms of sensitivity, MRI is slightly better than the combination of mammography and ultrasound for screening of women at average or intermediate risk of breast cancer. However, because of additional costs incurred by MRI screening, and the small gain in sensitivity, MRI screening is probably not warranted outside of high-risk populations.
