have dense breasts (BI-RADS category C and D on mammography performed within 12 months of breast US) and negative/benign BI-RADS assessment categories on mammography (BI-RADS 1, 2)

undergoing screening breast US using either automated or handheld device

Disqualifiers

history of bilateral prophylactic mastectomy

history of bilateral foreign body injection

history of bilateral breast implants

history of bilateral breast reduction surgery or surgical excision

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Incident breast cancer within 3 months to 7 years after the assessment of sonographic GTC

The 5-year cumulative incidence of breast cancer and hazard ratio by level of sonographic GTC using standardized risk

Time frame
from 3 months to 7 years after the GTC assessment

Secondary outcomes

1

Correlation of sonographic GTC with risk according to tumor type

Correlation of sonographic GTC with risk according to tumor type (DCIS vs. invasive cancer)

Time frame
from 3 months to 7 years after the GTC assessment
2

Correlation of sonographic GTC with breast cancer according to the breast US device

Correlation of sonographic GTC with breast cancer according to the breast US device (hand-held vs. automated)

Time frame
from 3 months to 7 years after the GTC assessment
3

The expected-to-observed (E/O) number of cancer diagnoses and concordance index (discriminatory accuracy)

The expected-to-observed (E/O) number of cancer diagnoses and concordance index (discriminatory accuracy) for the BCSC model (5-year risk score) and BCSC model integrated with sonographic GTC

Time frame
from 3 months to 7 years after the GTC assessment
4

Breast US diagnostic performance according to sonographic GTC

Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value

Time frame
from the examination till 1 year after the GTC assessment
