      Background - Artificial intelligence (AI) has shown promising results for cancer detection with mammographic screening. However, evidence related to the use of AI in real screening settings remain sparse.<p> <p>Purpose - To compare the performance of a commercially available AI system with routine, independent double reading with consensus as performed in a population-based screening program. ...
    • Early screening outcomes before, during, and after a randomized controlled trial with digital breast tomosynthesis 

      Holen, åsne Sørlien; Bergan, Marie Burns; Lee, Christoph I.; Zackrisson, Sophia; Moshina, Nataliia; Aase, Hildegunn Siv; Haldorsen, Ingfrid S.; Hofvind, Solveig Sand-Hanssen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-01)
      Purpose: To describe and compare early screening outcomes before, during and after a randomized controlled trial with digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) including synthetic 2D mammography versus standard digital mammography (DM) (To-Be 1) and a follow-up cohort study using DBT (To-Be 2). <p><p>Methods: Retrospective results of 125,020 screening examinations from four consecutive screening rounds ...
    • Mammographic density and interval cancers in mammographic screening: Moving towards more personalized screening 

      Larsen, Marthe; Lynge, Elsebeth; Lee, Christoph I.; Lång, Kristina; Hofvind, Solveig Sand-Hanssen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-03-21)
      Purpose: The European Society on Breast Imaging has recommended supplemental magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) every two to four years for women with mammographically dense breasts. This may not be feasible in many screening programs. Also, the European Commission Initiative on Breast Cancer suggests not implementing screening with MRI. By analyzing interval cancers and time from screening to ...
    • Screen-detected and interval breast cancer after concordant and discordant interpretations in a population based screening program using independent double reading 

      Martiniussen, Marit Almenning; Sagstad, Silje; Larsen, Marthe; Larsen, Anne Sofie Frøyshov; Hovda, Tone; Lee, Christoph I.; Hofvind, Solveig Sand-Hanssen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-04-02)
      Objectives - To analyze rates, odds ratios (OR), and characteristics of screen-detected and interval cancers after concordant and discordant initial interpretations and consensus in a population-based screening program.<p> <p>Methods - Data were extracted from the Cancer Registry of Norway for 487,118 women who participated in BreastScreen Norway, 2006–2017, with 2 years of follow-up. All mammograms ...
