Mammography screening and incidence of ductal carcinoma <i>in situ</i> of the breast in Italy: an age-period-cohort analysis
The increase in incidence rates resulted from an increased detection of DCIS through the screening programme and from an uptrend in the risk of diagnosis that can be attributed either to long-term changes in diagnostic scrutiny independent of the programme or to an increased exposure to risk factors.
