Changes and tracking of mammographic density in relation to Pike's model of breast tissue aging: a UK longitudinal study

Percent mammographic density (PMD) is a strong marker of breast cancer risk. It may be a correlate of the rate of breast tissue aging, as proposed by Pike to explain breast cancer age‐incidence. We examined longitudinal changes in PMD in 645 breast screening attendees in London, UK, in which each ha...
