“Mammograms may not be enough…..”
(Dr Nina Vincoff)
Women who have dense breasts — determined using mammography — have a higher risk of developing breast cancer. Dense breast tissue can also make cancers more difficult to see on mammography. For women with dense breasts, ultrasound (or “sonography”) can help improve cancer detection. For some women who are at high risk due to family history, genetic conditions or other factors, breast MRI is recommended. Women who think they may be at increased risk should consult their physician.
