Different Methods Recently Tested For Measuring Breast Density

Three different methods for measuring breast density accurately - through the relative portion of tissue toAAPM fat in a woman's breasts and a strong indicator of breast cancer risk- have been tested this week according to two new studies. The two studies were conducted by a group of medical physicists at the University of California, Irvine, led by Sabee Molloi, and both will be presented today and tomorrow at the 52nd Annual Meeting of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) in Philadelphia, PA.
