To assess difficulties in reading screening mammographies related to hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in the setting of a breast cancer screening program. Disagreement between two readers is used as the assessment criterion.The study population consisted of all women participating in the ADEMAS breast cancer screening program in Bas-Rhin (France). Agreement between the two radiologists was considered when the same global conclusion (call-back or not of the women for further examination) or the same conclusion for each of the nine possible lesions was observed.HRT is associated with a higher risk of disagreement between the two radiologists on global conclusion and on opacities. Conversely, disagreement risk is lowered for microcalcifications (whether benign or malignant) for HRT users.HRT is associated with a higher risk of disagreement on global conclusion. This has an impact on whether the women should be called-back or not according to reading of breast cancer screening program mammographies. |
