Those results are impressive and even more so for women with dense breasts. I think people would rather have a blood test than a X-Ray.

“We are extremely pleased with the results of our latest clinical trial,” said Herman Weiss, MD, FACOG, MBA, CEO of Todos Medical. “The TM-B1 cancer screen test achieved an overall sensitivity of 86% and specificity of 98% for breast cancer detection in the general population, and interestingly, an 83% sensitivity and 99% specificity was recorded for women with dense breasts (about 55% of study population). In comparison, screening mammography, the most commonly used imaging modality, has a sensitivity and specificity of approximately 80%, and even less in dense breast tissue. These results demonstrate the ability of Todos Medical to offer game-changing technology for the early detection of breast cancer in all women, including those who present challenges to existing screening methods. The potential to save lives is compelling.”

False Negatives
The overall sensitivity of mammography is 80%. Of bcas, 20% are not detected by mammography, but are detected by clinical symptoms such as a palpable mass or suspicious nipple discharge. False negatives are more likely with certain bcas—in particular, lobular carcinomas that tend to grow along the normal breast architecture in a lepidic pattern, making them more difficult to detect. False negatives are also more likely in patients with dense breast tissue, which masks bca. Breast tissue density is most commonly reported using the American College of Radiology’s 4-category Breast Imaging—Reporting and Data System. Sensitivity is highest in the lowest density category and lowest in the highest density category, with one study showing sensitivity decreased from 87% in fatty breasts to 63% in women with the densest breasts.
