Mammography remains one of the most critical areas of radiology practice -- and one that is facing changes in reporting requirements and reimbursement policy. Even with additional mammography reporting requirements placed on radiology practices, the reimbursement value of mammography services has not changed to reflect the extra work.

Amidst the battle against this disease, screening mammograms emerge as a crucial tool in early detection and effective treatment. In this blog, we delve into the significance of screening mammograms, their procedure, their benefits, and why they are essential for women’s health. What is a Screening Mammogram?

Previous studies have demonstrated that dense breast tissue masks breast cancers on mammography, and that supplemental imaging such as ultrasound and MRI confirms suspicious findings within dense tissue. Radiologists have studied and continue to research how breast density plays into breast cancer risk. The study can be found here.

Why Breast Density Matters in Cancer Screening Dense breast tissue affects screening in two key ways: Reduced Visibility : Dense tissue appears white on mammograms, as do tumors, making it harder to detect abnormalities. Inter-radiologist Variation : Assessments can vary up to 33% 1 when different radiologists interpret the same mammograms.
