Real-time reading in mammography screening significantly improves cancer detection. This approach in Italy demonstrated high sensitivity and early-stage cancer identification, supporting its wider adoption.

Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Oncology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Mammography screening programs are crucial for early breast cancer detection.
  • Real-time reading allows for immediate further investigations, potentially improving diagnostic accuracy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of real-time reading within a mammography screening program.
  • To assess the impact of immediate further diagnostic investigations (FDI) on screening outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • A 5-year retrospective analysis (1999-2004) of 54,472 women in the Marzana, Italy screening program.
  • Immediate imaging and cytohistological FDI following real-time mammogram interpretation.
  • Analysis of FDI rates, diagnostic yields, and breast cancer detection rates.

Main Results:

  • High breast cancer detection rate (BCDR): 9.7/1000 first calls and 5.1/1000 recalls.
  • Significant proportion of early-stage cancers (pTis-pT1a,b: 59.6%) and node-negative cancers (pN0: 61.2%).
  • High rate of conservative surgical procedures (78.6%) and low false-negative rate (8.3%) for interval cancers.

Conclusions:

  • The Marzana mammography screening program demonstrates high sensitivity with real-time reading.
  • The approach facilitates early diagnosis and less invasive treatment for breast cancer.
  • Further validation in other screening programs is recommended to confirm the benefits of real-time reading.
