An investigation of the relationship between breast parenchymal patterns and breast cancer prevalence in a large referral population is presented. Mammograms were assigned to one of four categories according to our interpretation of Wolfe's classification. Cancer prevalence for the four patterns was similar when uncorrected for age,, and was very high compared to that in the general population. Under age 50, the prominent duct pattern (P2) was associated with a very high relative cancer risk and DY carried a smaller increased risk. After age 50, prevalences for the patterns were nearly equal. Relationship between these findings and epidemiology of breast cancer are discussed and suggestions made for utilizing parenchymal patterns to guide examination frequency.
本文对一大群转诊患者的乳腺实质模式与乳腺癌患病率之间的关系进行了调查。根据我们对沃尔夫分类法的解读，乳房X光片被分为四类。在未校正年龄时，这四种模式的癌症患病率相似，与普通人群相比非常高。在50岁以下，显著导管模式（P2）与非常高的相对癌症风险相关，而DY模式的风险增加较小。50岁以后，这些模式的患病率几乎相等。本文讨论了这些发现与乳腺癌流行病学之间的关系，并就利用实质模式指导检查频率提出了建议。
