Screening--does it apply to breast cancer?

W Haenszel

    Cancer
    |August 15, 1980
    PubMed
    Summary

    This review examines mammography screening advancements and challenges, building on the Health Insurance Plan of Greater New York (HIP) trial. Future breast cancer screening methods will need to address similar issues for effective mortality reduction.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Oncology
    • Public Health

    Background:

    • The Health Insurance Plan of Greater New York (HIP) trial provided early insights into mammography's role in breast cancer screening.
    • Technological advancements continue to drive innovation in non-invasive breast cancer detection methods.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review developments in mammography as an adjunct screening procedure.
    • To identify challenges for future breast cancer screening modalities based on the HIP trial experience.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of historical mammography screening data and trial methodologies.
    • Analysis of challenges in defining control groups, rescreening protocols, and long-term follow-up.

    Main Results:

    • Mammography screening presents logistical and methodological challenges.
    • Standardization of diagnostic and treatment protocols is crucial for asymptomatic cases.

    Conclusions:

    • Future breast cancer screening technologies will likely face similar challenges to those in the HIP trial.
    • These challenges are resolvable, paving the way for new and improved screening modalities.
