FDA Updates Mammography Standards to Improve Breast Cancer Detection

American Radiology has always prioritized informing women about their breast tissue density in screening mammogram reports. As of September 10, 2024, the FDA has updated the Mammography Quality Standards Act (MQSA) to improve early breast cancer detection. New regulations require mammography centers to provide patients with clear, detailed breast density information. These changes enhance patient care and awareness, helping women make informed decisions about their health.
