Abstract
- Mammography is an invaluable method for the in detection of breast cancer, especially in asymptomaticpa-tients. Occasionally, however, mammography fails to detect cancer, resulting in false reassurance and delayeddi-agnosis. In this paper we describe various causes and the mammographic findings of false-negative mammo-grams.
