在进行了11到16年的复查随访后,加拿大这项研究得出了乳房X线检查没有裨益的同样结论。但一些专家预计,随着时间的推移,乳房X线检查的优势将会显现。

但对扫描结果的解读也有可能出错,而且在所有乳房X光检查结果中,有一小部分要么是假阳性(将健康病人误诊为患有癌症),要么是假阴性(在疾病的传播过程中,没有诊断出疾病)。

她原以为支持乳房X光检查的证据肯定会更加有力,因为大多数国家都支持乳房X光筛查,反对PSA筛查。
She had assumed that the evidence for mammography must be stronger since most countries support mammography screening and most discourage PSA screening .

这些研究结果不会立刻导致乳房X光检查准则的更改,很多倡导者和专家几乎肯定会对“乳房X线检查总体无用,甚至有害”的观点进行质疑。
The findings will not lead to any immediate change in guidelines for mammography , and many advocates and experts will almost certainly dispute the idea that mammograms are on balance useless , or even harmful .

而且这种筛查本身具有危害——通过乳房X光检查发现并进行了治疗的癌症肿块中,有五分之一对女性的健康并不构成威胁,也不需要进行化疗、手术或放疗等治疗。

卡拉格博士关于这项研究的社论标题是《乳房X光检查泛滥》(TooMuchMammography),文中使用来自临床试验的汇总分析数据,把乳房X光检查跟前列腺癌的前列腺特异性抗原(PSA)筛查相提并论。

历史上规模最大、最严格细致的乳房X光检查研究之一,对所有年龄段的女性进行这种筛查的价值提出了强有力的新质疑。这项研究持续了四分之一个世纪之久,涉及9万名女性。
One of the largest and most meticulous studies of mammography ever done , involving 90000 women and lasting a quarter century , has added powerful new doubts about the value of the screening test for women of any age .

但跟这项新研究同时发表的一篇社论说,那些发现乳房X光检查有利于女性的早期研究,是在如今常规使用的药物大幅降低乳腺癌死亡率之前进行的,这些药物包括他莫昔芬(Tamoxifen);
But an editorial accompanying the new study said that earlier studies that found mammograms helped women were done before the routine use of drugs like tamoxifen that sharply reduced the breast cancer death rate .
