Abstract 2528: Age and body mass index are predictive of cancer diagnosis among women with BIRADS 4 mammograms.

2013 
Background: Women with BIRADS 4 mammograms are referred for biopsy and have a 15-30% one year risk of breast cancer. Identifying pre-test predictors of cancer among women with BIRADS 4 mammograms may be useful in reducing false-positives. Methods: Women with BIRADS 4 mammograms were recruited from the University of Pennsylvania Health System from 2009-2012. Women Results: Among 269 participants with BIRADS 4 mammogram, 41 (15%) were diagnosed with cancer (DCIS N=16, Invasive N=25). Women diagnosed with cancer were significantly older than women with benign findings (p 2 had three times the odds of cancer diagnosis compared to women with BMI 2 (OR=3.33, 95% CI 1.18-4.34, p=0.02). Family history (OR=1.42, 95% CI 0.64-3.16, p=0.39) and HRT (OR=1.44, 95% CI 0.60-3.42, 0.41) were associated with elevated odds of cancer, but were not statistically significant. Conclusions: Age and BMI were predictors of cancer diagnosis among women with BIRADS 4 mammograms. Recruitment for this cohort is ongoing, and analysis is currently being expanded to include breast cancer associated SNPs, area-based and volumetric measures of breast density, and novel measures of breast complexity.
