[Significance of mammography study in the detection of 2,511 XXXX 1977 to 1987].

@entity5 @entity1 @entity189 @entity0
The relation between the way of @entity5 detection and @entity5 stage was studied in 2511 cases of @entity0 @entity1 . 85.0% of those @entity1 discovered @entity5 by themselves. 12.7% of the @entity189 were detected through the screening program (used in FRG). It was found that there exists a clear dependence between the @entity5 stage and the kind of diagnosis finding. When the @entity0 was detected by the @entity1 herself--in spite of attending regularly the above mentioned screening program--it showed that 16.1% had a small, favourable @entity5 up to 1.0 cm, in 39.8% a rest- @entity5 and in 48.1% axillary metastases were found. In cases diagnosed through the screening program the number of small @entity189 amounted to 21.4%, a rest- @entity5 frequency was 30.5%, and the axilla was afflicted in 25.6%. When the @entity5 was detected only on account of mammography, 47.7% of the @entity1 had a small @entity5 up to a size of 1.0 cm and 89.7% of the @entity1 had no axillary metastases. The results of the study show that the sensitivity of palpation and inspection is insufficient in the search for @entity0 . By including the mammography the efficiency of the screening programs is significantly improved. A routine mammography as a part of the screening program on the one hand makes the diagnosis "no @entity5 " more reliable, and the earlier detection of @entity0 on the other hand statistically renders the chances of healing significantly more favourable.
