between the ages of 10 years and 14 years appear to be at greatest risk of future development of breastcancer. General Considerations for Screening The goal of screening for cancer is to detect preclinical disease in healthy, asymptomatic patients to prevent adverse outcomes, improve survival, and avoid the need for more intensive treatments. Screening tests have both benefits (eg, improved health outcomes) and adverse consequences (eg, cost, anxiety, inconvenience, false-positive results, and other (...) test-specific harms such as overdiagnosis and overtreatment). Breast self-examination, breast self-awareness, clinical breast examination, and mammography all have been used alone or in combination to screen for breastcancer. In general, more intensive screening detects more disease. Screening intensity can be increased by combining multiple screening methods, extending screening over a wider age range, or repeating the screening test more frequently. However, more frequent use of the same
also benefit from supplemental screening. The recommendations for supplemental screening for women at intermediate risk of breastcancer, including those with a personal history of breastcancer, a history of lobular carcinoma in situ or ADH, those with an intermediate family history and a lifetime risk of 15% to 20%, or women with dense breasts continues to be an area of debate [47].

Breast-CancerTumor Size, Overdiagnosis, and Mammography Screening Effectiveness. The goal of screening mammography is to detect small malignanttumors before they grow large enough to cause symptoms. Effective screening should therefore lead to the detection of a greater number of small tumors, followed by fewer large tumors over time.We used data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) program, 1975 through 2012, to calculate the tumor-size distribution and size-specific (...) observed per 100,000 women). Assuming that the underlying disease burden was stable, only 30 of the 162 additional small tumors per 100,000 women that were diagnosed were expected to progress to become large, which implied that the remaining 132 cases of cancer per 100,000 women were overdiagnosed (i.e., cases of cancer were detected on screening that never would have led to clinical symptoms). The potential of screening to lower breastcancer mortality is reflected in the declining incidence of larger
. Although women suffered marked anxiety from experiencing false-positive mammography tests and loss of confidence from false- negative results, these feelings generally did not diminish women's belief in the value of mammography screening. In many cases, the experiences reinforced the importance of risk reduction as well as screening.

breastcancer, there is low-quality evidence that screening with mammography and adjunct ultrasound detects additional cases of disease, with improved sensitivity compared to mammography alone. Screening with adjunct ultrasound also increases the number of false-positive findings and subsequent biopsy recommendations. It is unclear if the use of screeningbreast ultrasound as an adjunct to mammography will reduce breastcancer–related mortality among high-risk women. The annual cost burden of using (...) adjunct ultrasound to screen high-risk women who cannot receive MRI in Ontario would be small.

Need How large is the need for this health technology/intervention? Women at average risk for developing breastcancer currently only receive mammography screening for breastcancer. Mammography screening is not perfect, and therefore a number of these women may have their cancers missed by mammography due to factors such as dense breasts and younger age. Currently, 1.15 million women in Ontario aged 50 to 74 years are screened with mammography annually. Women at high risk for breastcancer

Effect of Using the Same vs Different Order for Second Readings of Screening Mammograms on Rates of BreastCancer Detection: A Randomized Clinical Trial. Interpreting screening mammograms is a difficult repetitive task that can result in missed cancers and false-positive recalls.

However, a vigilance decrement (reduced detection rate with time (...) on task) has been observed in similar settings.To determine the effect of changing the order for the second film reader of batches of screening mammograms on rates of breastcancer detection.A multicenter, double-blind, cluster randomized clinical trial conducted at 46 specialized breastscreening centers from the National Health Service BreastScreening Program in England for 1 year (all between December 20, 2012, and November 3, 2014).

Cost-Effectiveness of Three Rounds of Mammography BreastCancerScreening in Iranian Women Breastcancer is the most common cancer in Iranian women as is worldwide.

A decision tree and Markov model were applied to estimate total quality adjusted life years (QALY) and lifetime costs.The results revealed that the incremental cost effectiveness ratio (ICER) of mammography screening in Iranian women in the first round was Int. $ 37,350 per QALY gained. The model showed that the ICER in the second and third rounds of screening program were Int. $ 141,641 and Int. $ 389,148 respectively.Study results identified
Harms of BreastCancerScreening: Systematic Review to Update the 2009 U.S. Preventive Services Task Force Recommendation.
