The ability of digital breast tomosynthesis to reduce additional examinations in older women.

Aims: To assess the diagnostic performance of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) in older women across varying breast densities and to compare its effectiveness for cancer detection with 2D mammography and ultrasound (U/S) for different breast density categories. Furthermore, our study aimed to predict the potential reduction in unnecessary additional examinations among older women due to DBT.

Methods: This study encompassed a cohort of 224 older women.

Compliance With Radiation Protection Practices Among Radiologists.

Background: Radiologists are at higher risk of adverse health effects due to their occupational radiation exposure; therefore, applying protection techniques is imperative. Studies on radiologists' compliance in this regard are scarce. We aimed to assess compliance with radiation safety practices among radiologists.
