While this is an improvement over the prior recommendation to begin screening at age 50, it falls short of the current recommendation by the Society of Breast Imaging and the American College of Radiology to obtain annual mammograms beginning at age 40. Concern for radiation risk due to annual screening is really of no concern!

What’s more, the USPSTF concluded that there was insufficient evidence to recommend supplemental screening with MRI or ultrasound in women, regardless of breast density. Furthermore, high-risk women who desire supplemental screening -- but cannot undergo MRI -- should consider contrast-enhanced mammography, according to the ACR.
