To understand mammographers\u2019 perception of individual women\u2019s breast cancer risk. Materials and Methods. Radiologists interpreting screening mammography examinations completed a mailed survey consisting of questions pertaining to demographic and clinical practice characteristics, as well as 2 vignettes describing different risk profiles of women. Respondents were asked to estimate the probability of a breast cancer diagnosis in the next 5 years for each vignette. Vignette responses were plotted against mean recall rates in actual clinical practice. Results. The survey was returned by 77% of eligible radiologists. Ninety-three percent of radiologists overestimated risk in the vignette involving a 70-year-old woman; 96% overestimated risk in the vignette involving a 41-year-old woman. Radiologists who more accurately estimated breast cancer risk were younger, worked full-time, were affiliated with an academic medical center, had fellowship training, had fewer than 10 years experience interpreting mammograms, and worked more than 40% of the time in breast imaging. However, only age was statistically significant. No association was found between radiologists\u2019 risk estimate and their recall rate. Conclusion. U.S. radiologists have a heightened perception of breast cancer risk.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0272989x05276857","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,6,10]],"date-time":"2005-06-10T13:37:52Z","timestamp":1118410672000},"page":"283-289","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Mammographers\u2019 Perception of Women\u2019s Breast Cancer Risk"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"25","author":[{"given":"Joseph R.","family":"Egger","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of General Internal Medicine, University of Washington School of Medicine, Harborview Medical Center, Seattle, WA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gary R.","family":"Cutter","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Research Design and Statistical Methods, University of Nevada School of Medicine, Reno, NV"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Patricia A.","family":"Carney","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Community and Family Medicine, Dartmouth Medical School, Lebanon, NH"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Stephen H.","family":"Taplin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Cancer Institute, Applied Research Program, Bethesda, MD"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"William E.","family":"Barlow","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Health Studies, Group Health Cooperative, Seattle, WA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"R.
