A study comparing breast scans to diagnose small breast cancers in dense breasts (BRAID)

This study is to find out whether extra scans with one of several types of scans, is helpful in diagnosing breast cancer in women with dense breast tissue.

We will do this by comparing breast cancer detection between:

• women who have their standard 3 yearly mammograms and

• women who have the standard 3 yearly mammogram plus two additional scans in between NHS breast screening rounds

The study is open to women who have had breast screening as part of the NHS Breast Screening Programme. You are invited to take part if you have a high amount of dense breast tissue.

Cancer Research UK supports this trial.
