Further, the task force incorrectly concludes there is “inadequate” evidence to support adding screening MRI (or ultrasound if MRI is not possible) after a mammogram for many women with dense breasts. In women with the densest breasts, about 40% of cancers are missed on a mammogram. But women with dense breasts are at higher risk.
