Purpose: This retrospective study evaluates the effect of comparison with prior mammograms on recall negation for screening mammography performed with digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) in a clinical setting and compares it with that performed without DBT.

Methods: This is an Institutional Review Board-approved, HIPAA-compliant retrospective review of the electronic medical record for all nonbaseline screening mammograms performed in clinical practice over 13 months. For each mammogram, we recorded if DBT were used, the BI-RADS assigned at initial interpretation, and whether prior mammograms were available at initial interpretation.

Purpose: To assess whether women with a false-positive mammogram who do return for screening are less likely to be compliant with screening mammography guidelines than are women with a negative mammogram.

Methods: This institutional review board-approved, HIPAA-compliant retrospective cohort study includes women >40 years old who received 9,385 consecutive, nonbaseline screening mammograms between December 1, 2012 and December 31, 2013. Using linear regression, we evaluated differences in time between mammograms by prior recall status, after adjusting for location of current mammogram (outpatient office versus mobile unit) and age.
