| Popis: | As a part of a retrospective study of computer-aided detection in breast cancer screening, we recorded the percentage of the breast density on a visual analogue scale on 4,866 routine screening mammograms taken in 1996 as part of the North East of Scotland Breast Screening Service. In these women, 284 breast cancers were diagnosed from the time of the original mammograms up until February 2010. |
