Observed %	Expected %
82.93	40.05	0.715 (0.649-0.772)	0.707 (0.623-0.781)	0.800 (0.739-0.861)

Low risk categories:

I: Mammogram composed of scalloped contours with some lucent areas of fatty replacement and 1 mm evenly distributed nodular densities.

II: Mammogram composed almost entirely of lucent areas of fatty replacement and 1-mm evenly distributed nodular densities.

III: Prominent ducts in the retroareolar area.

High risk categories:

IV: Extensive, nodular and linear densities with nodular size larger than normal lobules.

V: Homogeneous ground-glass-like appearance with no perceptible features.
