"We have the benefit of a lower recall rate, or fewer false positives. We have increased cancer detection, and we have a lower rate of advanced cancers," said Dr. Liane Philpotts. "So it's truly a game changer." This statement underscores the advantages of 3D mammography over traditional 2D methods by highlighting its capacity to reduce anxiety associated with false positives while enhancing early cancer detection.
Despite the promising results of the new study, an editorial warns it does not definitively answer whether 3D mammography finds troublesome breast cancers earlier than 2D mammography. This pending question indicates the necessity for further research to confirm the breakthrough findings and solidify clinical recommendations.
