Belgian-led team develops model for ovarian tumors

Researchers from Belgium have crafted a model that discriminates between benign and malignant ovarian tumors, and it also distinguishes between the four types of ovarian malignancy. The model has implications for triage and management decisions, they said.

Breast MRI equals needle biopsy for excluding malignancy

For BI-RADS 0 cases, researchers from Austria have found breast MRI can reliably exclude malignancy with a sensitivity of 100%, which means it's just as accurate as needle biopsy for excluding breast cancer.

Spanish dismiss digital mammo's overdiagnosis risk

In a new 16-year study, Spanish researchers have found that switching to full-field digital mammography (FFDM) leads to early diagnosis, not overdiagnosis. The group found that cancer detection rates did not increase when compared with film-screen mammography, but going digital did lead to an increase in ductal carcinoma in situ detection rates.

New studies underline promise of digital breast tomosynthesis

Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) is superior to conventional digital mammography when detecting breast cancer in women with dense breasts, according to research presented at this month's International Congress of Radiology. DBT also has an edge for the characterization of masses.

Forget breast screening for women 70 and older, Dutch say

Routine breast cancer screening should not be performed on a large scale in women older than age 70 until more data are available, according to Dutch researchers who conducted a trial of more than 38,000 women. The prospective study, published online on 15 September, has attracted an angry response from some experts.

Single-view DBT + DM protocol boosts mammography sensitivity

A breast screening protocol that combines single-view digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) with single-view 2D digital mammography (DM) had higher sensitivity for detecting breast cancer than two-view 2D digital mammography, with just a slight increase in radiation dose, according to a new study in European Radiology.

CAD with single reader works for breast screening, Spanish say

An institution in Spain has adopted single reading with computer-aided detection (CAD) software to screen for breast cancer in light of recent study results indicating that it works just as well as double reading with arbitration. The only caveat is the readers must be experienced radiologists.
