Abstract:
The goal of screening is to detect breast cancers when still curable to decrease breast cancer-specific mortality. Breast cancer screening in the United States is routinely performed with digital mammography and digital breast tomosynthesis. This article reviews breast cancer doubling time by tumor subtype and examines the impact of doubling time on breast cancer screening intervals. By the article's end, the reader will be better equipped to have informed discussions with patients and medical professionals regarding the benefits and disadvantages of the currently recommended screening mammography intervals.
