SBI Live Webinar: Tamizaje Suplementario Para la Deteccion de Cancer de Seno (Supplemental Screening for Breast Cancer Detection)

Descripción de la Presentación: Tamizaje Suplementario Para la Detección de Cáncer de Seno

Aproximadamente el 40% de las mujeres mayores de 40 años de edad tienen senos densos (1). El tejido denso reduce la efectividad de la mamografía y aumenta el riesgo de desarrollar cáncer de seno. Las mujeres con senos densos están a un mayor riesgo de padecer de cánceres de intervalo con un mayor estadío (2). Al añadir el tamizaje suplementario a la mamografía debemos detectar el cáncer de seno más temprano que de otra manera sería detectado clínicamente como una masa palpable. En esta presentación discutiremos tamizaje suplementario para la detección de cáncer de seno incluyendo: tomosíntesis, ecografía, resonancia magnética, imágenes moleculares de seno y mamografía de contraste.

Approximately 40% of women over 40 years of age have dense breasts (1). Dense tissue reduces the effectiveness of mammography and increases the risk of developing breast cancer. Women with dense breasts are at increased risk for higher stage interval cancers (2). By adding supplemental screening to mammography, we should detect breast cancer earlier than would otherwise be detected clinically as a palpable mass. In this presentation, we will discuss supplemental screening for breast cancer detection, including tomosynthesis, ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, molecular breast imaging, and contrast mammography. References: 1.
