The goal of this study was to describe short-term outcomes after surveillance mammography among older women, including use of subsequent imaging, cancer diagnosis, and positive predictive value.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This longitudinal cohort study used Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results\u2013Medicare data. We followed women diagnosed with breast cancer between 2003 and 2007 at age 67 or older until diagnosis of a second primary breast cancer, death, or end of follow-up (2019). We used claims to identify surveillance mammograms. Outcomes included subsequent imaging, second primary breast cancer diagnosis, and positive predictive value after surveillance. Outcomes were identified based on proximity to surveillance mammography. We stratified analyses by age and time since diagnosis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The cohort included 33\u00a0607 women who received 160\u00a0637 mammograms over a median of 12.1\u2009years. Subsequent imaging was performed after 115 per 1000 mammograms (95% confidence interval [CI] = 114 to 117) and was similar across ages and time since diagnosis. Second primary breast cancer was diagnosed after 7.1 per 1000 mammograms (95% CI = 6.7 to 7.5) and was similar across ages but generally higher beginning 5\u2009years postdiagnosis. Positive predictive value among women with subsequent imaging ranged from 3.7% to 9.2%. Most second primary breast cancers were either in situ (23.3%) or stage I (57.0%).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Although surveillance mammography may detect breast cancer even years after diagnosis, surveillance also leads to substantial subsequent testing.
