Although mammography is a highly effective screening tool, in some cases
it can provide low specificity in detecting breast cancer, as indicated by the
high false positive rate of biopsy. In cases where post -mammogram evaluation
is indicated, BSGI acts as a vital diagnostic adjunct with a specificity of 92
percent, as demonstrated through multiple clinical studies, and provides a
high sensitivity for identifying earlier stage cancers -- as small as 3 mm.
