Background:

Accurate breast density (BD) assessment is crucial for breast cancer risk stratification.
Existing methods for BD measurement may have limitations in precision and automation.
Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) offers improved visualization of breast tissue compared to 2D mammography.

Conclusions:

The automated PDa technique using DBT data is valid and demonstrates significant findings for breast cancer risk assessment.
The study successfully derived and validated multiple quantitative measures of breast density from DBT.
The developed synthetic 2D standardized image technique provides a new tool for understanding and applying breast density measures.
