Supplemental imaging modalities for breast cancer screening in women with dense breasts: A systematic review with economic considerations
Standard mammography often fails to detect cancers in women with dense breasts. Supplementary MRI provides better detection than DBT, ABUS, and HHUS. CEM seems comparable to MRI, based on limited evidence. These findings should be considered in future screening policy reviews for women with dense breasts.
