  • Cost-effectiveness of screening BRCA1/2 mutation carriers with breast magnetic resonance imaging.

    Plevritis SK, Kurian AW, Sigal BM, Daniel BL, Ikeda DM, Stockdale FE, Garber AM. JAMA. 2006; 295 (20): 2374-84

    Women with inherited BRCA1/2 mutations are at high risk for breast cancer, which mammography often misses. Screening with contrast-enhanced breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) detects cancer earlier but increases costs and results in more false-positive scans.
