Detection of noncalcified breast cancer in patients with extremely dense breasts using digital breast tomosynthesis compared with Full-Field digital mammography.

CONCLUSION:: Addition of DBT to FFDM showed no significant increase in the tumour visibility and diagnostic performance in patients with noncalcified T1 cancer in extremely dense breasts. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE:: Addition of DBT to FFDM did not further improve the detection of noncalcified early breast cancers in females with extremely dense breasts.
