    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Radiology
    • Public Health

    Background:

    • Large breast cancers (>20 mm) present diagnostic challenges.
    • Understanding factors associated with their detection is vital for improving screening efficacy.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate factors influencing the detection of large breast cancers (>20 mm) within a national screening program.
    • To assess the role of personal history, mammographic characteristics, and tumor aggressiveness.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 7,407 breast cancers larger than 20 mm.
    • Data collected through collaboration with French coordinating physicians responsible for breast cancer screening.

    Main Results:

    • Tumor aggressiveness and technological factors were more prevalent in larger tumors.
    • Compliance with screening programs emerged as a key determinant in discovering these large tumors.

    Conclusions:

    • Population participation in breast cancer screening programs is essential.
    • Screening adherence significantly impacts the detection of advanced-stage breast cancers, influencing prognosis.
