Patterns of breast parenchyma on mammography.
The hypothesis that two of four mammographic patterns show a marked predisposition to develop breast cancer was examined in a retrospective study. Four hundred patients with breast carcinoma were randomly chosen. The xeromammograms of the opposite breasts in these patients had been done and were studied. The conclusion of Wolfe was not supported by our findings.
