Sammanfattning

Recent European pooled analyses indicate that mammographic screening reduces breast cancer mortality, but entails a certain risk of overdiagnosis and false positive screening results. In Norway, as I see it, we lack valid results concerning mammographic screening and breast cancer mortality. Norwegian figures for overdiagnosis vary, while the risk of false positive test results appears to be at the same level as the European pooled analysis.
