Original language description

EUSOBI and 30 national breast radiology bodies support mammography for population-based screening, demonstrated to reduce breast cancer (BC) mortality and treatment impact. According to the International Agency for Research on Cancer, the reduction in mortality is 40 % for women aged 50-69 years taking up the invitation while the probability of false-positive needle biopsy is &lt; 1 % per round and overdiagnosis is only 1-10 % for a 20-year screening. Mortality reduction was also observed for the age groups 40-49 years and 70-74 years, although with &quot;limited evidence&quot;. Thus, we firstly recommend biennial screening mammography for average-risk women aged 50-69 years; extension up to 73 or 75 years, biennially, is a second priority, from 40-45 to 49 years, annually, a third priority. Screening with thermography or other optical tools as alternatives to mammography is discouraged. Preference should be given to population screening programmes on a territorial basis, with double reading. Adoption of digital mammography (not film-screen or phosphor-plate computer radiography) is a priority, which also improves sensitivity in dense breasts. Radiologists qualified as screening readers should be involved in programmes. Digital breast tomosynthesis is also set to become &quot;routine mammography&quot; in the screening setting in the next future. Dedicated pathways for high-risk women offering breast MRI according to national or international guidelines and recommendations are encouraged. aEuro cent EUSOBI and 30 national breast radiology bodies support screening mammography. aEuro cent A first priority is double-reading biennial mammography for women aged 50-69 years. aEuro cent Extension to 73-75 and from 40-45 to 49 years is also encouraged. aEuro cent Digital mammography (not film-screen or computer radiography) should be used. aEuro cent DBT is set to become &quot;routine mammography&quot; in the screening setting in the next future.
