US elastography, contrast-enhanced mammography, MR spectroscopy: Which offers the most promise?
VIENNA - Mammography is an imperfect modality, so it makes sense that radiologists are on the lookout for something better, or at least something to supplement the technique. Thursday's refresher course covers functional imaging of the breast and goes into detail about ultrasound elastography, contrast-enhanced mammography, and MRI diffusion, perfusion, and spectroscopy, which may supplement mammography or replace it altogether.

Norwegians evaluate psychological impact of mammo recalls
Recall after mammography is associated with transiently increased anxiety, as might be expected, but Norwegian researchers also found that four weeks after screening the level of anxiety was the same and depression was lower compared with the general population. They reported their findings in the March issue of the European Journal of Cancer.

New breast MRI method can help predict malignancy
A study from the Netherlands has shown that evaluating vascular cross-sectional area differences of internal mammary vessels could be a new predictor for malignancy on MRI. The measurement was significantly different in breast cancer patients on the side with cancer compared with the contralateral side, and the variation was not evident in healthy controls.

Local volunteers fill breast cancer screening gap in Sudan
Due to limited access to mammography, researchers developed a breast screening program in Sudan that relied on clinical breast exams and self-examination. The inexpensive program used local volunteers and resulted in earlier detection of breast cancer compared with when no screening takes place.

Doubts remain over mammography screening, says cancer expert
A leading breast surgeon remains unconvinced that the benefits of mammography screening outweigh the harms. While deaths may be avoided, any benefit will be more than outweighed by deaths due to the long-term adverse effects of treatment, he stated in an article published online on 23 January in BMJ.
