Description

Highlights: • Women at increased breast cancer risk benefit from supplemental imaging. • Contrast mammography detects cancers not seen on routine mammography. • PPV3 of contrast mammography is similar to MRI. - Abstract: ObjectivesContrast enhanced digital mammography (CEDM) is a new breast imaging technology increasingly used in the diagnostic setting but its utility in the pure screening setting has not been reported. The goal of this pilot study is to prospectively compare screening CEDM to breast MRI in women with an increased risk for breast cancer.
