Automated breast ultrasound (ABUS) is more accurate than digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) as a diagnostic tool for working up positive findings on mammography screening in dense breast tissue. By Kate Madden Yee, AuntMinnie.com staff writer

Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) is comparable to full-field digital mammography (FFDM) for identifying benign breast lesions. | AuntMinnie.com | By Kate Madden Yee, staff writer

Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI-MRI) each have advantages and disadvantages for assessing suspicious breast lesions. The optimal approach is multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) using both methods, according to a new study published online in Investigative Radiology by Wayne Forrest, AuntMinnie.com

Adding digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) to digital mammography improves breast cancer screening in women younger than 50, decreasing recalls and finding more cancers in those who have dense tissue by Kate Madden Yee, AuntMinnie.com
