Predicting interval and screen-detected breast cancers from mammographic density defined by different brightness thresholds
Published in Breast cancer research : BCR (13-12-2018)“…Case-control studies show that mammographic density is a better risk factor when defined at higher than conventional pixel-brightness thresholds. We asked if…”

Novel mammogram‐based measures improve breast cancer risk prediction beyond an established mammographic density measure
Published in International journal of cancer (01-05-2021)“…Mammograms contain information that predicts breast cancer risk. We developed two novel mammogram‐based breast cancer risk measures based on image brightness…”

Mammographic density defined by higher than conventional brightness thresholds better predicts breast cancer risk
Published in International journal of epidemiology (01-04-2017)“…Mammographic density defined by the conventional pixel brightness threshold, and adjusted for age and body mass index (BMI), is a well-established risk factor…”

Measurement challenge: protocol for international case–control comparison of mammographic measures that predict breast cancer risk
Published in BMJ open (31-12-2019)“…IntroductionFor women of the same age and body mass index, increased mammographic density is one of the strongest predictors of breast cancer risk. There are…”
