The overall effectiveness of early breast cancer detection efforts requires the appropriate use and maintenance of dedicated radiographic mammography systems. However, the effectiveness of early detection efforts can be compromised if proven technology is improperly used and/or maintained or if ineffective technology is successfully marketed as an equivalent or superior alternative to mammography. This report summarizes state and federal responses to the inappropriate use of a nonradiographic imaging technique in a breast cancer screening service advertised and used in Wisconsin in 1990.
早期乳腺癌检测工作的整体成效需要合理使用和维护专用的乳腺X线摄影系统。然而,如果已证实的技术使用不当和/或维护不善,或者如果无效的技术被成功推销为乳腺摄影的等效或更好替代方案,那么早期检测工作的成效可能会受到影响。本报告总结了州和联邦对1990年在威斯康星州宣传并使用的一项非X线成像技术在乳腺癌筛查服务中不当使用的回应。
