Here's the Article I've Been Waiting For
Finally, here's an article about the value of adding an MRI and/or ultrasound to mammography for women with dense breasts. It's all here, and from my experience, it's all true. Ask your doctor if you have dense breasts and talk about a good screening program. As the article states, having dense breasts (common in young, premenopausal women) makes one six times more likely to develop breast cancer! That's huge.
