Automated percent mammographic density, mammographic texture variation, and risk of breast cancer: a nested case-control study

Abstract Percent mammographic density (PMD) is a strong breast cancer risk factor, however, other mammographic features, such as V, the standard deviation (SD) of pixel intensity, may be associated with risk. We assessed whether PMD, automated PMD (APD), and V, yielded independent associations with...
