Breast-Cancer Tumor Size, Overdiagnosis, and Mammography Screening Effectiveness. The goal of screening mammography is to detect small malignant tumors 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 breast cancer 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.

breast cancer, 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 screening breast ultrasound as an adjunct to mammography will reduce breast cancer–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 breast cancer currently only receive mammography screening for breast cancer. 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 breast cancer

Effect of Using the Same vs Different Order for Second Readings of Screening Mammograms on Rates of Breast Cancer Detection: A Randomized Clinical Trial. Interpreting screening mammograms is a difficult repetitive task that can result in missed cancers and false-positive recalls. In the United Kingdom, 2 film readers independently evaluate each mammogram to search for signs of cancer and examine digital mammograms in batches. 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 breast cancer detection.A multicenter, double-blind, cluster randomized clinical trial conducted at 46 specialized breast screening centers from the National Health Service Breast Screening Program in England for 1 year (all between December 20, 2012, and November 3, 2014). Three hundred sixty readers participated (mean, 7.8 readers per

Cost-Effectiveness of Three Rounds of Mammography Breast Cancer Screening in Iranian Women Breast cancer is the most common cancer in Iranian women as is worldwide. Mammography screening has been introduced as a beneficial method for reducing mortality and morbidity of this disease.We developed an analytical model to assess the cost effectiveness of an organized mammography screening program in Iran for early detection of the breast cancer.This study is an economic evaluation of mammography (...) screening program among Iranian woman aged 40 - 70 years. 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
