Xeromammography is a safe, low-dose type of breast x-ray study that often enables us to detect breast cancer before it is palpable and before it has metastasized. Xeromammographic identification of parenchymal pattern makes possible determination of risk of breast cancer and of appropriate intervals for follow-up mammographic examination. The real hazard is not in performing, but in omitting, xeromammography--a potentially lifesaving examination.
干板乳腺摄影是一种安全的、低剂量的乳房X光检查，它常常能使我们在乳腺癌可触及之前以及发生转移之前就检测到它。通过干板乳腺摄影识别乳腺实质模式，能够确定患乳腺癌的风险以及后续乳房X光检查的合适间隔时间。真正的风险不在于进行干板乳腺摄影检查，而在于不进行这项检查——这是一项可能挽救生命的检查。
