Excerpt

Breast density is a significant predictor in the risk of developing breast cancer. Several methods are available for assessing breast density but all are subject to intra-observer variability and are unable to assess the breast as a three-dimensional structure. Using Quantra™ to quantify breast density, we have correlated this with risk factors to determine what impact these variables have on breast density. …
