Association between breast density and breast cancer among pre‐ and postmenopausal women (n = 48)
| Diagnosis | P value | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Benign | Malignant | ||
| Premenopausal | |||
| BI‐RADS composition of breast | .321 | ||
| A—almost entirely fatty | 1 (3.2) | 1 (5.9) | |
| B—scattered fibroglandular density | 7 (22.6) | 1 (5.9) | |
| C—dense (heterogeneously and extremely) | 23 (74.2) | 15 (88.2) | |
| Postmenopausal | |||
| BI‐RADS Composition of Breast | .295 | ||
| A—almost entirely fatty | 5 (27.8) | 5 (12.2) | |
| B—scattered fibroglandular density | 5 (27.8) | 11 (26.8) | |
| C—dense (heterogeneously & extremely) | 8 (44.4) | 25 (61.0) | |
