Screening Mammography for Males With Elevated Breast Cancer Risk, Mutation Carriers, and Gynecomastia
CONCLUSION: Gynecomastia may be associated with an increased risk of breast cancer in carriers. Larger studies are needed to determine whether and when to screen male carriers.PMID:38670861 | DOI:10.1016/j.clbc.2024.03.014 (Source: Clinical Breast Cancer)

Unveiling the potential of breast MRI: a game changer for BI-RADS 4A microcalcifications
ConclusionsBreast MRI has the potential to improve the diagnosis of BI-RADS 4A microcalcifications on mammography. We propose a potential clinical pathway that patients with BI-RADS 4A on mammography who are premenopausal, have no personal history of breast cancer (family history) or have non-clustered distribution of calcifications can undergo MRI to avoid unnecessary biopsies.

Mammographic features at primary breast cancer diagnosis in relation to recurrence-free survival
CONCLUSION: RFS was impaired in women with high breast density compared to those with low density, especially among women with screen-detected BC. This study may lead to insights on mammographic features preceding BC recurrence, which could be used to tailor follow up strategies.PMID:38663074 | DOI:10.1016/j.breast.2024.103736 (Source: Breast)

Diagnostic performance of contrast ‐enhanced mammography for suspicious findings in dense breasts: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
ConclusionCEM has high diagnostic performance in the workup of suspicious findings in dense breasts, and when lesions are enhanced and have irregular margins, they are often malignant. (Source: Cancer Medicine)

Cancers, Vol. 16, Pages 1640: Histological Patterns and Mammographic Presentation of Invasive Lobular Carcinoma Show No Obvious Associations
őző
Invasive lobular carcinoma of the breast has different mammographic appearances, including spiculated or lobulated masses, architectural distortion, increased breast density, and the possibility of also being occult. Histologically, the morphology is also variable, as several patterns have been described beside the classical one, including the solid, the alveolar, the trabecular, the one with tubular elements, and others. Of 146 ILC cases, 141 were reviewed for mammographic appearance and 136 for histological patterns by two radiologist and two pathologists, respectively; 132 common cases were analyzed for possib...

ESR Essentials: screening for breast cancer - general recommendations by EUSOBI
AbstractBreast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in women accounting for about 30% of all new cancer cases and the incidence is constantly increasing. Implementation of mammographic screening has contributed to a reduction in breast cancer mortality of at least 20% over the last 30 years. Screening programs usually include all women irrespective of their risk of developing breast cancer and with age being the only determining factor. This approach has some recognized limitations, including underdiagnosis, false positive cases, and overdiagnosis. Indeed, breast cancer remains a major cause of cancer-related dea...

Disentangling the relationships of body mass index and circulating sex hormone concentrations in mammographic density using Mendelian randomization
ConclusionOur findings support a positive causal association between BMI and mammographic non-dense area and an inverse association between BMI and dense area. Evidence was weaker and inconsistent for a causal effect of circulating sex hormone concentrations on mammographic density phenotypes. Based on our findings, associations between circulating sex hormone concentrations and mammographic density phenotypes are weak at best. (Source: Breast Cancer Research and Treatment)
