Mammographic density defined by higher than conventional brightness threshold better predicts breast cancer risk for full-field digital mammograms

INTRODUCTION: When measured using the computer-assisted method CUMULUS, mammographic density adjusted for age and body mass index predicts breast cancer risk. We asked if new mammographic density measures defined by higher brightness thresholds gave better risk predictions. METHODS: The Korean Breas...
