December 2024
Clinical Epidemiology Program, Ottawa Hospital Research Institute, Ottawa, ON, Canada.
Objective: This systematic review update synthesized recent evidence on the benefits and harms of breast cancer screening in women aged ≥ 40 years and aims to inform the Canadian Task Force on Preventive Health Care's (CTFPHC) guideline update.
Methods: We searched Ovid MEDLINE® ALL, Embase Classic + Embase and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials to update our searches to July 8, 2023. Search results for observational studies were limited to publication dates from 2014 to capture more relevant studies.

Aims: To investigate the potential lead time bias of the evaluation model (extended follow-up for women diagnosed with breast cancer) used to evaluate mammography screening in a recent Danish study. This model was compared with two traditional models.
Methods: We retrieved data on women diagnosed with breast cancer in each county of Norway from 1986 to 2016.
Supplemental Screening as an Adjunct to Mammography for Breast Cancer Screening in People With Dense Breasts: A Health Technology Assessment.
Ont Health Technol Assess Ser
October 2024
Article Synopsis
- The study assessed the effectiveness and necessary considerations for supplemental imaging methods (like MRI, ultrasound, etc.) alongside mammography for individuals with dense breasts, which may help detect breast cancers that are typically missed.
- A systematic literature search was conducted on clinical evidence from 2015 to 2021 and included assessments using established bias risk tools, as well as cost-effectiveness analyses from a public health perspective.
- Eight primary studies were included in the review, though none evaluated certain key aspects related to the safety and overall effectiveness of supplemental screening methods.

The Daffodil Centre, The University of Sydney, A Joint Venture with Cancer Council NSW, Sydney, NSW, Australia.
Objectives: We aimed to synthesise evidence from prospective studies of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) screening to assess its effectiveness compared to digital mammography (DM). Specifically, we examined whether DBT reduces interval cancer rates (ICRs) in population breast cancer screening.
Materials And Methods: We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of DBT screening studies (identified from January 2013 to March 2024).
