aAnalyses adjusted for age, menopausal status, post-menopausal hormone use, and body mass index. bHazard ratios (HRs) corresponding to milliampere-seconds (mAs), thickness, and compression refer to a 1 standard deviation (SD) change in the respective parameter (SD: mAs = 49.5, thickness = 12.7, compression = 5.6). HRs corresponding to voltage peak (kVp) are based on a tri-level ordinal variable (22-25, 26-27, 28-32). Owing to missing acquisition parameters, 18 cases and 47 controls that were included in the analyses depicted in Table 2 are not included here.
