To characterize online news coverage relating to mammography, including articles' stance toward screening mammography.
Google News was used to search U.S. news sites over a 9-year period (2006-2015) based on the search terms "mammography" and "mammogram." The top 100 search results were recorded. Identified articles were manually reviewed.
The top 100 news articles were from the following sources: local news outlet (50%), national news outlet (24%), nonimaging medical source (13%), entertainment or culture news outlet (6%), business news outlet (4%), peer-reviewed journal (1%), and radiology news outlet (1%). Most common major themes were the screening mammography controversy (29%), description of a new breast imaging technology (23%), dense breasts (11%), and promotion of a public screening initiative (11%). For the most recent year, article stance toward screening mammography was 59%, favorable; 16%, unfavorable; and 25%, neutral. After 2010, there was an abrupt shift in articles' stances from neutral to both favorable and unfavorable.
A wide range of online news sources addressed a range of issues related to mammography. National, rather than local, news sites were more likely to focus on the screening controversy and more likely to take an unfavorable view. The controversial United States Preventive Services Task Force guidelines may have influenced articles to take a stance on screening mammography. As such online news may impact public perception of the topic and thus potentially impact guideline adherence, radiologists are encouraged to maintain awareness of this online coverage and to support the online dissemination of reliable and accurate information.
描述与乳腺钼靶摄影相关的在线新闻报道，包括文章对乳腺钼靶筛查的立场。
使用谷歌新闻在9年期间（2006 - 2015年）搜索美国新闻网站，搜索词为“乳腺钼靶摄影”和“乳房X光照片”。记录前100条搜索结果。对识别出的文章进行人工审核。
前100篇新闻文章来源如下：地方新闻媒体（50%）、全国性新闻媒体（24%）、非影像医学来源（13%）、娱乐或文化新闻媒体（6%）、商业新闻媒体（4%）、同行评审期刊（1%）和放射学新闻媒体（1%）。最常见的主要主题是乳腺钼靶筛查争议（29%）、新乳腺成像技术描述（23%）、致密乳腺（11%）和公共筛查倡议推广（11%）。在最近一年，文章对乳腺钼靶筛查的立场为：59%支持、16%反对、25%中立。2010年后，文章立场从无明显倾向突然转变为既有支持也有反对。
众多在线新闻来源涉及了一系列与乳腺钼靶摄影相关的问题。全国性而非地方性新闻网站更有可能关注筛查争议且更有可能持反对观点。有争议的美国预防服务工作组指南可能影响了文章对乳腺钼靶筛查采取立场。鉴于此类在线新闻可能影响公众对该主题的认知，进而可能影响对指南的遵循，鼓励放射科医生留意此类在线报道，并支持可靠准确信息的在线传播。
