   Sammanfattning : Introduction: The current standard method for breast cancer screening is digital mammography (DM). Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) can detect more cancers but is more resource-demanding, not the least due to a more time-consuming reading, which hinders the implementation in screening. LÄS MER

5. 4. Mammography Screening-Factors affecting Tumour Stage and Outcome

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to investigate screening mammography in relation to factors affecting tumour stage and outcome. The main focus was on obesity, tumour biology and breast density. We hypothesized that obese and overweight women could benefit more from screening detection than normal weight women. LÄS MER

7. 5. Breast cancer screening in an urban, Swedish population Aspects of non-attendance, interval cancers and over-diagnosis
