Article Synopsis
- - Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT), when used with a synthetic 2D mammogram (S2D), exposes women to higher radiation but may enhance cancer detection compared to full-field digital mammography (FFDM) alone.
- - A review of 17 studies, including 13 for meta-analysis, found that DBT plus S2D provided a higher cancer detection rate compared to FFDM alone, while also showing similar accuracy to DBT with FFDM.
- - The findings suggest that integrating S2D with DBT in breast cancer screening is effective and maintains the safety and performance of the imaging process.
Objectives: Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) can improve diagnostic accuracy compared to 2D mammography, but DBT reporting is time-consuming and potentially more fatiguing. Changes in diagnostic accuracy and subjective and objective fatigue were evaluated over a DBT reporting session, and the impact of taking a reporting break was assessed.
Materials And Methods: Forty-five National Health Service (NHS) mammography readers from 6 hospitals read a cancer-enriched set of 40 DBT cases whilst eye tracked in this prospective cohort study, from December 2020 to April 2022.
Purpose To assess whether individual reader performance with digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) and two-dimensional (2D) mammography varies with number of years of experience or volume of 2D mammograms read. Materials and Methods After written informed consent was obtained, 8869 women (age range, 29-85 years; mean age, 56 years) were recruited into the TOMMY trial (A Comparison of Tomosynthesis with Digital Mammography in the UK National Health Service Breast Screening Program), an ethically approved, multicenter, multireader, retrospective reading study, between July 2011 and March 2013. Each case was read prospectively for clinical assessment and to establish ground truth.
